Lancers Prevail in Double-Header Victory over Dolphin Baseball
The promising Dana Hills baseball team opened its season with a tough double-header series against nationally ranked Orange Lutheran at Cal State Fullerton on Feb. 25. One game was extremely close, but the other was not, and the Lancers came away with victories in both.
Orange Lutheran won the first game convincingly, 13-0.
In the second tilt, Dana Hills sent standout senior Hans Crouse to the mound. Crouse, a USC commit, is widely regarded as one of the best high school arms in the country. Crouse struck out six but surrendered two hits and was tagged with the loss.
Dana Hills (0-2) will travel to play Servite in the opening game of the Loara Tournament.
