That's a wrap on the 2022 season. 26-7, Boras Classic, SCVAL Champs, CCS runner up, NorCal State Division 1 and today graduation for the seniors. Boys you poured your hearts into this season. We loved watching you play.

Nice 7-2 victory over Gilroy today. @callum_olsen with the save - 5 K’s in 2 innings. @aidan_berger & @haydenjgs each with 2 hits. Starter Josh Donaker giving up only 2 hits over 5 innings. Good to be back on the field!
tough 1-0, 8 inning loss in the @cifccs final. strong team defense and an amazing @sampapp1 w/7 IP, 0 W and only 90 pitches. @dominicdefeo13 w/2 H and @zach_hayward12 w/1H. on to NorCal Championships on Tuesday.
Paly wins 13-2 over Homstead to get to 2-0 on the season. Colin Thibault with the complete game - 2 K’s. @DarbyZander 3-4 with HR & double. @dominicdefeo13 2-2 and fantastic game behind plate. @henrybolte2, @DeanHal74113500, Ritter Amsbaugh, & Bo Wingard with hits.
That's a wrap on the regular season.
Despite a very young team (4 seniors) and lots of injuries (7 starters out at one point), we finished 13-12 with 3 wins against top-ranked teams (Mitty, St Francis & Gatos). Nice work, all.
Next up: CCS playoffs this Sat 1pm at Branham!
Bright future for Jr infielder and leadoff hitter Xavier Esquer. See below for his HR off Valley Christian in CCS playoffs - his 8th of the season as a junior! Very impressive. @x_esquer
What a season this was. Sad to end our season but I couldn’t have asked for better teammates and a better senior class. Loved going out there with my brothers every day. (Valley highlights ⬇️) @Paly_Baseball
