Nunez and Stewart Commit to Pepperdine and CSUN, Respectively

The 2023 season isn't over yet, but two standout sophomores have already commited to 4-year universities. Conner Stewart will be playing at Cal State Northridge next year and Julian Nunez is set to join Pepperdine on a full scholarship.

Stewart and Nunez both made the All-PCAC first team during their freshman seasons in 2022 and it would be no surprise if both earned that same accolade once again. 

Stewart, City's catcher and co-captain, is currently batting .322 with 39 total hits, seven doubles, two home runs, 23 RBI, and five stolen bases. He has a .990 fielding percentage with 33 assists and has thrown out 14 batters in 2023.

Nunez, the Knights' shortstop and co-captain, is batting .366 with at team-high 45 total hits, 14 doubles, five homers, 29 RBI, and five stolen bases. He has 83 assists and has turned 19 double plays this year.
