Valencia’s baseball team has one of the top sophomores in the state in shortstop Christian Lopes, but the Vikings showed off another promising sophomore Saturday in a winter game against Sherman Oaks Notre Dame.

Quincy Quintero, who played junior varsity last season, threw two shutout innings as a starting pitcher and contributed a three-run home run against Notre Dame hard-throwing right-hander David Armendariz.
