Baseball: Juan Diego players sign with California schools
Four baseball players from Draper's Juan Diego Catholic High School announced their college choices earlier this week. The four boys have played together all four years at Juan Diego and were part of the school's 2005 state championship and 2007 region championship.

Jordan Cox, a lefthanded pitcher, will attend Cal Lutheran, a Division III school. Cox carries a 3.6 GPA and will receive a Provost and other academic scholarships.

The three other players -- Patrick Fratto, Bryan James and Michael Lipsey -- will attend Taft College in Southern California.

Fratto has been awarded a co-scholarship with the Italian American Civic League and will go to Taft on an academic and baseball scholarship. A middle infielder and pitcher, he hit .516 last year, best on the team.

James will likely play in the outfield for Taft and plans to study computer science.

Lipsey, a third baseman, played on the senior all-star team last fall and has lettered in baseball all four years at Juan Diego.

All four have been coached at Juan Diego by Steve Cramblitt, one of the winningest prep baseball coaches in state history.
