Baseball: Moore resigns at El Dorado

June 12th, 2012, 12:30 pm by Steve Fryer

Dave Moore today said he has resigned as baseball coach at El Dorado. Moore became the school’s baseball head coach in 2010, after 18 years as an assistant coach there.

Moore, 41, said he is resigning to create more time for his wife and their two children.

El Dorado qualified for the playoffs all three of Moore’s seasons as head coach. His teams were 54-34 overall. Most of his 18 years as an El Dorado baseball assistant coach were spent while the head coach was Steve Gullotti, whom Moore replaced in ’10 and is the school’s athletic director.

This past season, El Dorado’s Golden Hawks were 19-11 overall, finished second in the seven-team Century League and advanced to the quarterfinals in CIF-Southern Section Division 1. The won the championship of the National Classic in April.

“I wish the program nothing but the best,” Moore said. “I will miss the players the most.”

He has been part of El Dorado’s on-campus security staff.

Video: Crespi survives freak accident and Orange Lutheran’s late rally

April 7th, 2010, 6:32 pm by Jonathan Khamis

Crespi defeated Orange Lutheran 7-6 in the semifinals of the Diamond Sports National Classic.

A scary moment in the 5th inning…Crespi’s Ryon Healy (Oregon signee) attempted to field a ground ball at first, but took a bad hop to his lip. The game was delayed for several minutes, until the bleeding stopped.

The Celts scored four runs in the top of the 7th, but the Lancers rallied in the 4th. The tying runner was left stranded on second base as Blake Hugaert lined out to end the game.

Interviews with Healy & Orange Lutheran head coach Eric Borba
