King Philip senior Alex Lutfy has been selected as the HockomockSports.com Player of the Week, presented by Morse Insurance, for June 2 through June 9. Lutfy is the 38th athlete chosen as Player of the Week for the 2024-25 school year and 11th in the spring season.
Lutfy delivered the biggest moment of KP’s season so far when he came up with two outs and the bases loaded in the bottom of the seventh in a tie game against rival Franklin. He hit a line drive to deep left, bringing in the game-winning run to send the Warriors to a third Final Four in the past four seasons.
“Alex has been a consistent bat for us throughout the season,” said King Philip head coach Jeff Plympton. “He’s really stepped up for us this postseason, leading the team in hits. We have all the confidence in him to come through in big situations which he showed us against Franklin for the walk off.”
The team’s second-leading hitter during the regular season (0.288), Lutfy has delivered during KP’s playoff run. In the opener against Medford, Lutfy reached base twice (walk and single) and scored a pair of runs in a 9-0 win. Against North Andover in the Sweet Sixteen, Lutfy drove in a pair with a single, sparking a big inning that led to a 9-2 win.
In the quarterfinal, played in front of a massive crowd at Lombard Field, Lutfy went 3-for-4, finishing with three of his team’s four hits. He singled in the fourth and again in the sixth before pinch runner Conor Alvezi stole a pair of bases and was stranded at third. In the seventh, Leo Dowling singled with one out and intentional walks to Drew Herlin and Aiden Astorino loaded the bases for Lutfy. He went with a pitch and drove it to the warning track, just out of the reach of the left fielder, to bring in the winning run and keep KP’s tournament run alive.
