Daniel, a San Diego native, committed to the Toreros after an outstanding junior season at Rancho Bernardo High School. He was named the 2010 Palomar League Player of the Year, Cal-Hi Sports first-team All-State, first-team All-North County and first-team All-CIF San Diego Section selection.
"Andrew is a ball player in every sense of the word," said USD head coach Rich Hill after Daniel signed his letter of intent. "He is a plus defensive infielder that has a chance to be special as an offensive player, in the mold of Mark Loretta."
