The 1979 varsity baseball team can best be summarized as a young team with fine potential. In practice games, the Lancer nine gathered wins against Chaminade, Cathedral, St. Monica and LaSalle to enter league competition with a sparkling 4-0 record. This performance marked them as a team to be reckoned with. The roster included two sophomores and seven juniors. Sophomore pitcher Jack Jasper, showing fine ability, seems destined for a good future at LHS. Other players displaying talent were Jeff Garrison, Nick Cepeda, Osberto Geno, Julio Veitia, and Gary Atherton. Coach Dan Noval, pleased with the strong pre-league showing, stated, ‘‘Each player on the roster contributes to the team’s success as a whole by incorporating hard work and self-discipline.’ As the Troubadour went to press, the JV baseball squad had a 2-2 pre-season scoreboard and one league loss to Miraleste. Achieving greater consistency was their immediate goal, and Craig Gutman and Ismael Ibarra were especially strong players. Early predictions picked the JV’s to do well in league play.
