Victor Valley duo announces plans
Two baseball standouts from Victor Valley College have decided their next move.
Sophomore shortstop and pitcher Blane Lloyd (Granite Hills HS) is headed to Division II Cal State Dominguez Hills while freshman outfielder Derek Richie (Silverado HS) is headed to La Sierra.
Both were second-team All-Foothill Conference selections the past season.
Rams coach Bob Smith said Richie is also considering playing basketball.
The duo helped the Rams improve over the past season, going from three wins in 2007 to 10 this season.
