Two Crook County baseball standouts landed on the Oregon 4A All-State second team.

Gage Martinez and Blaze Nunez, who were both first-team all-Tri-Valley Conference players, made the second unit as a infielder and outfielder, respectively.

Martinez also played in the 4A All-Star Series at North Marion High School June 14-15.

The 4A Player of the Year was Henley senior Mark Carpenter. The position player of the year is Quinton Olson of Scappoose, also a senior. Pendleton pitcher Evan Lehnert, who helped power the Bucks to the state title, is the pitcher of the year. He is also a senior.

Newport’s Taylor Plesha was named the coach of the year.

John Tawa, a reporter for the Oregon Schools Activities Association website, OSAA.org, noted Martinez as one of the handful of Oregon prep pitchers who topped 87 miles per hour on the mound this season. He reported Martinez as going to Blue Mountain Community College to play baseball.
