The 6-foot-5, 200-pound Clarke brought his talents to Cornejo of the California Summer Collegiate League in 2014 as a high school senior, batting .264 with two home runs and 13 RBI in 28 games.\n<\/p>\n<p>\n\tTrask, a 6-foot-3, 220-pound right-handed pitcher, will work out of the bullpen as a freshman this spring as the Bruins begin to develop him into a Pac-12 starter. Trask, a native of Davis, Calif., was ranked No. 275 out of 500 high school prospects by Perfect Game USA in 2014 and was named All-Nor-Cal First Team. He played for Yakima Valley (Wash.) in the West Coast Collegiate League as a high school senior, going 2-0 with a 3.68 ERA and striking out 20 batters in 22 innings\n<\/p>\n<p>\n\t&ldquo;Zander and Matt are big, physical and athletic guys that each have tremendous upside,&rdquo; said Loggers general manager Chris Goodell.&nbsp; &ldquo;We&rsquo;re always excited to have the opportunity to work with John Savage and the quality student-athletes that he sends us from UCLA each year.&rdquo;\n<\/p>\n<p>\n\tWith the additions of Clarke and Trask, the Loggers continue a long association with Pac-12 and NCAA Division I power UCLA. Former Bruins who have played in La Crosse include Daniel Miltenberger (2003), Dean Espy (2010), Trevor Brown (2011), Kevin Kramer (2012), Chris Keck (2013), Scott Burke and Luke Persico (2014).\n<\/p>\n<p align=\"center\">\n\t###<br \/>\n\tThe La Crosse Loggers are a member of the finest developmental league for elite college baseball players, the Northwoods League.
