Cerutti is MVP of PCL

Corona del Mar High senior Julien Cerutti has been named Most

Valuable Player of the Pacific Coast League, leading a group of eight

Sea Kings named all-league by the circuit’s coaches.

Cerutti, bound for UC Davis, was a dynamic midfielder for the PCL

champions (15-4-6, 7-1-2 in league), who won the PCL crown outright

this year after sharing the championship with Northwood last season.

CdM seniors Chris Ringstrom, Dominic Rubino and Jeritt Thayer,

along with junior Shane Collins, garnered first-team all-league

laurels.

Seniors Dan Whitaker and Dan Marin-Finn, as well as junior Grant

Almquist, are second-team honorees.

Ringstrom, a forward, scored 23 goals, while Rubino and Thayer

were versatile players, and Collins was a strong defender for Coach

Pat Callaghan’s CIF Division II semifinalist.

Cerutti, Ringstrom, Thayer, Collins and Whitaker earned all-league

honors last year, as well.
