Baseball: Beware of Newbury Park’s Luke Eubank

The high school baseball season begins this weekend, and one player to keep watch of is Newbury Park’s Luke Eubank, a senior pitcher-first baseman.

He signed with Cal State Los Angeles but could be a pro prospect. He’s a standout pitcher and hitter.

He can drop to the side on the mound and has wicked off-speed stuff. He also has power at the plate. He is scheduled to pitch on Saturday at home against Camarillo in a rematch of last year’s Southern Section Division I playoff game won by Newbury Park, which knocked off ace Hunter Virant.

Virant and Justin Chamberlain return on the mound for Camarillo. One will pitch Friday and the other will face Eubank on Saturday at 11 a.m.
