HIGH SCHOOL BASEBALL NOTEBOOK: SCHAEFFING IS ON A TEAR FOR QUARTZ HILL.Byline: Heather Gripp Staff Writer Brett Schaeffing is not one of the four players on Quartz Hill High's baseball team who have committed to Division I colleges. Schaeffing is just the team's - and one of the area's - hottest hitters. The senior catcher is batting .545 and leads the Golden League with five home runs and 17 RBIs through nine games. ``People are starting to talk about him,'' Quartz Hill coach Aaron Kavanagh said. ``He's a real quiet guy, so he's not out there trying to get attention, but someone's going to find him and get a real gem gem, ornamental mineral or organic substance gem, commonly, a mineral or organic substance, cut and polished and used as an ornament. Gems also are used as seals (items of assurance) and as talismans (good-luck charms). For birthstones, see month. .'' Schaeffing went 2 for 2 with four RBIs in Wednesday's league opener, a 12-0 victory over Littlerock.
