As a first baseman, Gregerson enjoys all of the action that comes to the base, dedicating all his time to only playing baseball, because of the competition that comes with the sport. “My favorite memory while playing at Las Lomas is playing at Raley Field, the San Francisco Giants triple A’s team’s field my freshman year,” says Gregerson.

But when it comes to what his favorite thing about the sport in general is, hitting takes the lead. “I like hitting because I like the feeling of when I hit the ball and it comes off my bat,” says McCullar.
Andrew LaCour #14
“My favorite thing about my position I play is that I am the person who controls the game and striking people out is one of the most satisfying things for me.” says sophomore pitcher, Andrew LaCour.

Starting when he was ten years old, LaCour currently is only focusing on baseball, hoping to get into one of his dream schools, LSU, Cal, or Vanderbilt, for baseball.
Dylan Graham #6
For junior Dylan Graham, playing baseball is a result of a longtime interest, beginning when he was a kid, at the age of five to be exact. Graham is a center fielder on the varsity baseball team and says that his favorite thing to do while playing that position is making dive catches. “I have to be mentally tough because if I make a mistake I won’t get another chance to make it up for a couple innings, so I need to forget the mistakes and move on,” said Graham, describing his favorite thing about the sport.
