LUBBOCK, Texas - VMI shortstop Sam Roberts was named to the Collegiate Baseball Hall of Fame's National All-Star Lineup for games played April 11-17, as announced by the organization Wednesday. It marks the third major award of the week for the senior, who was named both Big South and ECAC Player of the Week on Tuesday.

Roberts had a sensational week at the plate, going 11-15 ( =.733) in four road wins last week.  He also walked six times, including four on Sunday to tie a school record, and drove in nine runs -- including a lead-off home run in game two at Charleston Southern.  In addition, he swiped six bases in seven attempts and scored eight runs, including four in Saturday's 15-12 Keydet win against the Buccaneers.  All told, Roberts reached base in 18 of 23 plate appearances ( =.783 OBP), including 9-of-11 against Charleston Southern.  Other than a sacrifice fly in the CSU opener, Roberts was retired only once by the Bucs, going 9-10 with all six of his walks.  He also picked up a save in the Saturday CSU game, as well as working two scoreless innings in Wednesday's non-conference victory at William & Mary.

VMI baseball is back in action Friday, playing host to the Liberty Flames in the opener of a three-game Big South series. Game time is scheduled for 6 p.m.
