REDLANDS, California -- Sophia Ortega didn't leave many stones unturned during her high school career.The Citrus Valley third baseman hit .500 in her junior year and batted just underneath the mark as a senior, topped her squad in RBIs in 2012 and 2010, helped lead the Blackhawks to a CIF-Southern Section Division 6 title in her final campaign and made back-to-back appearances in division championship games.
This fall, Ortega will be moving across the country, to the East Coast, as she's set to head to Daytona Beach, Fla., where she will suit up on the diamond in the spring at Bethune-Cookman University.
Ortega will be trying to find time on coach Chris Cochran's Wildcats, who went 30-30 this past season, and fell to national power Texas A&M in the NCAA Regionals.
On paper, it won't be an easy task, as Bethune-Cookman recently put the wraps on its third consecutive Mid-Eastern Athletic Conference crown.
