HS BASE: Paschal pushing for big things at small school

Remember Bobby Paschal, the former Chaminade baseball standout who went to USC and played a couple of years in the minors?

He's now the athletic director and assistant baseball coach at Delphi Academy in Lakeview Terrace, and it looks like he might have a pretty good team this coming spring.

Delphi went 16-2 last year and has several top returning players, including shortstop Cody Simpson (.558), outfielder Sam Dyer (.512, 29 of 30 SBs) and pitcher/shortstop Preston Taylor.

The defending International League champs compete in Div. V but are playing bigger teams this year, including Alemany and Hoover.

At Chaminade, Paschal was a two time Daily News Pitcher of the Year and the Cal Hi Sports Player of the Year as a junior.
