Almost half of the recruiting class of 14 that Community College of Southern Nevada baseball coach Tim Chambers signed to commitments Wednesday were locals.

"The lucky six," said Chambers. "The smallest amount (of locals) we've ever signed."

That choice group of area prep standouts included Las Vegas outfielder Cameron Johnson, Silverado shortstop Casey Coon and pitcher Daniel Morris, Palo Verde pitcher Drew Alleman, Centennial first baseman J.C. Leach and Cimarron-Memorial third baseman Jorge Esquival.

The defending national champion Coyotes swept a season-opening, three-game series over Fullerton College last weekend.
