A 2008 graduate of Blue Springs South High School in Lee's Summit, Mo...earned four varsity letters for baseball and was a team captain for three seasons...an over .400 career hitter in his four seasons...became the first freshman in school history to start on the varsity team, and hit a team-best .480 that season...set school's single-season home run record as a senior...a three-time all-state, all-district and all-conference selection...also played two years with the Missouri Junior Sunbelt team.

■ 1987 interview with Lusardi on Examiner.net:

Lusardi, the No.3 hitter in the Jaguars lineup, has been having a special senior year. After not hitting a home run in his high school career before this season, Lusardi has five this year – tied for the team lead. His play in center field Tuesday helped teammate Kirk Huismann throw a no-hitter against Raytown in district play, sparking the Jaguars to the district championship.
