Coach Bolding: “Robbie rejoins the Lancer lineup in 2010, bringing an offensive package offered by few others. He will once again patrol center field and hit in the leadoff spot. Robbie’s one-two punch of a dominant bat and tremendous speed will allow him to be extremely effective at getting Longwood’s offense started. Look for Robbie to not only be on base consistently, but to also clear the bags with the longball.”
