The pair will be making their way to Monterey Peninsula College where they have committed to play with the Lobos, a junior college squad that plays in the California Community College Athletic Association.
The 17-year-old Clay is a starting centrefielder with the Reds who attends Heritage Woods secondary in Port Moody. The 5’, 10”, 185 lbs. athlete had a strong showing during his team’s last two games against the Abbotsford Cardinals, where he posted three RBIs.
Lusztig is a catcher for the Coquitlam Reds and attends Handsworth secondary. He has also scored five runs this season.
The Reds have been muddling through the season and have struggled lately with a 4-6 record in their last 10 games. Coquitlam is hanging on to a playoff a spot in eighth place with a 11-15 season record.
