Former Matanzas baseball player J.J. Sousa, who plays baseball for West Virginia University, is working on his game this summer by playing in the New England Collegiate Baseball League. Players are drafted from their respective colleges and play during the summer.
Playing in a game for the North Adams SteepleCats, Sousa went 3-for-4 from the plate with an RBI.
His team beat the Newport Gulls 14-9.
Stephen Usina is changing schools.
Usina — who starred at placekicker for Flagler Palm Coast's football team and at goalie for the Bulldogs' soccer and lacrosse teams — announced via Twitter that he's transferring to rival Matanzas for his final two years of high school.
However, he won't be sticking with football. His father, Stephen Usina Sr., told the Observer that he plans to focus on soccer and lacrosse while at Matanzas.
