CARSON, Calif.-Cal State Dominguez Hills baseball players Zac Cort (El Cerrito HS) and Jose Montes (San Fernando HS) were selected to the 2004 All-California Collegiate Athletic Association (CCAA) Baseball Teams as announced recently by the league office.

Cort, a senior outfielder from El Cerrito, CA., enjoyed a stellar final season in a Toros uniform while earning All-CCAA Second-Team honors. Cort hit .371 on the year and broke the all-time single-season hits record with 89. He led the team in runs (51), doubles (15), triples (2), total bases (123) and stolen bases (13). Cort also broke the single-season record for most at-bats with 240.

Junior outfielder Jose Montes has been named to the All-CCAA third team.

Montes, a junior outfielder from San Fernando, CA., was selected to the All-CCAA Third-Team as he led the Toros with 39 runs batted-in while hitting .329 at the plate. Montes scored 42 runs, recorded 73 hits, including 14 doubles while blasting seven home runs. He was also perfect defensively in the field.

"It has been a pleasure to coach these two fine men this year," said Acting Head Coach Murphy Sua. "They both had great seasons and have a true love for the game. Zac's energy and commitment is going to be missed, but we are really looking forward to having Jose back for his senior year."
