The Super High-Five Players of the Week.
Victoria Ramirez, El Monte: The senior captain stepped up in a big way for the Lions in their 10-8 win over Baldwin Park on Monday. With starting pitcher Giselle Peralta removed from the game because of illness, Ramirez stepped into the circle for the first time in three years and held Baldwin Park to one run on four hits in four innings of work in a 10-8 Lions win.
