PAUL ENGEL

- 24

Senior Major:

- Right Field

Business Administration

Hometown:

La Mesa, Ca.

Paul begins his fourth season as a starting outfielder for the Toreros, his third in right. He is a fine defensive player with one of the best arms amongst college outfielders. He has a powerfully quick bat, and hits with consistency. When his senior year is finished Paul will own several USD career records including RBI's, hits, doubles, at-bats, and will be among the Torero Top Five in others. Always a top RBI man, Paul led USD in 1978 with 41, and was also named

the team's "Outstanding Hitter" that season. With his good speed he is always a threat on the bases, as his 40 career steals will attest. In 1979 he hit .302, with 29 RBI's, three home runs, and eleven doubles. His size and natural ability help to make him the Toreros top pro prospect. At Grossmont High School Paul was an All-League third baseman, hitting .327 as a senior. In football, he was an All- League quarterback.
