All-Around Player Earns All-Conference Honors

When it comes to all-around players in baseball in this day and age, there are few players who are looked at as someone who can perform both on the mound and at the plate. 

The San Bernardino Valley College baseball team had one of those players in 2023.

Sophomore Nathan Campos-Jaramillo (Kaiser) was a key part of the SBVC lineup whenever he was in the lineup - which was almost all the time. He was a starting pitcher for the Wolverines, as well as the team's regular center-fielder. His work on the field earned him first team All-Inland Empire Athletic Conference for the 2023 season as a utility player.

At the plate, Jaramillo was third on the team with a .340 batting average and led the state with 24 doubles this season - which puts him in the top five all-time at SBVC. He also led the team with three triples and 31 runs batted in, finishing with a .580 slugging percentage. On the mound, he made 10 starts and finished with a record of 4-3 with 39 strikeouts. 

Jaramillo finishes his SBVC career with 100 hits - 41 of them doubles (also top 5 in SBVC history) - and a slash line of .336/.409/.513. On the mound, he finished 6-6 with a 4.53 earned run average.

Freshman Cy Robertson (Citrus Valley) was chosen as a second-team selection as an infielder. He finished the season tied for third on the team in hits with 38, and posted a slash line of .309/.397/.415. He also stole eight bases in nine attempts.
