Baseball: Clarke brothers provide lift to Newbury Park

The Clarke brothers _ Zander, a senior, and sophomore twins Chris and Zach _ have provided major contributions for Newbury Park, which is part of a three-way tie for third place in the Marmonte League.

Zander, a first baseman who’s 6 feet 6, is batting .483 and is headed to UCLA. Chris, a 6-5 USC commit, is 2-0 with a 1.65 ERA as a pitcher. Zach, who’s 5-10 and just entering his growth spurt, is a backup shortstop.

All three are A students and great kids.
