Coach Shawn Abell: “Robbie is going to be one of our go-to guys this season. After putting up impressive numbers last year, we will look to Robbie to lead us. The lanky speedster is an outstanding outfielder, and he swings the bat with the best of them. 2008 should be another great season for Robbie.
