Nick Tanis of Valencia spent two years on JV before getting a chance to play varsity baseball full time at Valencia this season as a senior. He was converted to a sidearm pitcher, culminating on Friday when he struck out four in two shutout innings of relief to record his fifth save and help the Vikings stun No. 1-seeded Studio City Harvard-Westlake 8-4 in the Southern Section Division 1 playoffs.
