@latsondheimer@ShaunKort is terrific! @SFKnightsBB improved by 8 wins in his 1st year, inc vs Harvard-Westlake and 2 vs Sierra Canyon. Also: (1) toughest schedule in SGV; (2) most competitive conference in LA County; (3) best field in CA; and (4) develops players within its own program.
@CatholicU_BSB season starts tomorrow! Grateful that @xanderdouglas4 attends CUA. To succeed, work hard, stay healthy and find a team that develops you, challenges you and wants you to succeed as much as you do. Highlights from last summer vs. college commits below. Go Cardinals!
Summer trip to Cape Cod Baseball League for incoming Catholic U freshman @xanderdouglas4. X got tips from Coaches Lawler and Cook of @FirebirdsCCBL. Even when he’s on vacation, X is always working. Go Firebirds! Go Cardinals! @CatholicU_BSB@SFKnightsBB
Highlights for @xanderdouglas4 of @SFKnightsBB. Win vs Agoura; saves vs St. Bon, Loyola, Sierra Canyon & Harvard Westlake. Closer mentality 2023! 1.64 ERA, .135 BAA & 1.22 WHIP led team against Mission League heavy schedule. Not a hard hit ball to be found. @CatholicU_BSB
Mission League baseball’s success is due in part to its depth. Playing 21 contested League games is the best prep for the playoffs. @SFKnightsBB had more D1 wins and played more D1-D3 teams than any of the local playoff teams in its area, all of which lost early. Always compete!
Last HS video of @xanderdouglas4 playing for @SFKnightsBB and @ShaunKort. 3 easy outs vs #1 in CA, #7 in USA, Notre Dame (SO). Honor to play for @AthleticsSFHS against legit Mission League teams. This program & this young man both have bright futures! Next stop … @CatholicU_BSB
@xanderdouglas4 RHP 2023 @CatholicU_BSB commit @SFKnightsBB v Crespi. X with 4IP, 1H, 1R, 1BB, 3K. All you can do is your best to prepare, compete and support your teammates … success will always follow. Sometimes, wins too.
