College baseball: Lions pick up a pair

COSTA MESA - The Vanguard University baseball team has added two

players to its roster, Lions Coach Kevin Kasper said.

Sean Moglia and Jason Searle have both signed letters of intent to

play for the Lions.

Moglia comes from North Idaho College as a junior transfer. The second

baseman had a .959 fielding average while at NIC and earned the North

Idaho College Male Academic Athlete of the Year honor.

“Sean will be an outstanding addition to our program,” Kasper said.

‘He has everything that we look for in a student-athlete.”

Moglia, who will major in business administration, carried a 4.0 GPA

in high school and was the valedictorian at Lake City High. He maintained

a 3.82 GPA at North Idaho and made the Dean’s List both seasons.

Searle is a native of Novato and graduated in June from Novato High.

The incoming freshman is a right-handed pitcher and utility player who

broke seven school career baseball records at NHS. Searle was a four-time

all-league player and was selected team MVP three times.

“We are very pleased to have a freshman of Jason’s caliber,” Kasper

said. “He will make an immediate impact on the Lion pitching staff.”
