Former Fortunan Huskie pitcher Hailey Dolcini recently pitched Nationally #25 ranked Fresno past #3 Texas. Hailey leds the Bulldogs with a 10-1 record this year. No other Humboldt County native has put up anywhere close to these types of numbers in Division 1 softball. She is currently 42-17 for her career with around a 2.00 era.
But who is the best male Division 1 player all time out of Humboldt. Again, not close. Rick Lundblade played for Stanford from 1982 to 1985 and was MVP of the league in 85' when he hit 25 home runs and had 92 RBI's topping Barry Bonds that year. He is listed as one of Stanfords all time starting lineup and is in the Hall of Fame. Overall Rick hit 42 home runs in college and was drafted by Philadelphia and made it to Triple AAA. Rick is currently an attorney in southern Oregon.
So there you have it. Hailey the best women's college softball player ever from Humboldt, Rick the greatest college baseball player.
Thanks for postong!
