The 2021 Thousand Oaks High baseball team that won the Southern Section Division 2 championship and finished No. 2 in The Times’ Southland rankings behind Harvard-Westlake that season is looking even better in hindsight.

Infielder Max Muncy was a first-round draft pick of the Oakland Athletics in 2021. Now two of his teammates will be joining him in pro ball. Shortstop Jacob Wilson from Grand Canyon, the son of former Thousand Oaks coach and major leaguer Jack Wilson, was a first-round pick of the Athletics on Sunday. On Monday, second baseman Roc Riggio, who played at Oklahoma State, was taken in the fourth round by the Yankees.

Here’s a look at Southern California players taken through 10 rounds of the draft:
