BART BRAINARD

- 15

Catcher Behavioral Scince Anaheim, Ca.

Junior Major: Hometown:

As he enters his third season at USD, Bart has a clear shot at being the starting catcher. He shared catching duties last season with Jeff Tipton, who made All-Conference second team. If he doesn't catch, he'll be either at first base or desegnated hitter. One thing is for sure; with his bat and fine speed, Bart will be

in the line-up. Last year he stole 13 bases in 15 attempts, while hitting .293t with 10 doubles. As a freshman in 1978, Bart won Rookie of the Year honors. He led the Toreros in league games with a .382 average and hit .309 that season. He has good size and plenty of natural talent. With some work on his defensive techniques he could be the Toreros number one catcher this season. Bart went to Magnolia High School in Anaheim, where he hit .350 his senior year and led his team to the CIF finals. He made All-League and All-County that year.

Freshman Major: Hometown:

Business Administration Santa Ana, Ca.

Al red-shirted last year at Orange Coast College. He attended Foothill High School in Santa Ana where he played three years of varsity baseball and two years basketball. He was second team All-League his junior year in baseball. As a senior he was again second team All-League, but was also an honorable mention All-American. Al has shown promise in the winter program, and with a little polish, he will prove valuable to the Toreros this season. He is a big righthander with a strong arm who works hard on his game.
