A friend's son was hitting in preK and it turned out he has sensory issues. They've addressed the sensory issues w/ therapy and from one day to the next, the hitting stopped. It's actually pretty amazing.

I think it's important to try and figure out what the trigger is. Are the kids touching him too much? Touching his things? is there too much noise? Is he not getting what he wants? Is it during transition times? just before lunch? Just after lunch? First thing in the AM?
