STEPHENVILLE - Tarleton baseball head coach Bryan Conger announced yet another signing with the addition of Division I transfer Britt Robertshaw.

Robertshaw joins the Texans from Northwestern State, where he redshirted during his junior season.  The 6'3" right-handed pitcher earned two saves in as many tries before suffering a season-ending injury.  During that span, Robertshaw stayed focus in the classroom, earning Dean's List Honors (3.5 GPA minimum) both semesters.

Prior to playing at Northwestern State, Robertshaw played two seasons at Blinn Junior College and received a number of accolades.  Besides being named Academic all-conference, he was named JUCO Pitcher of the Week on one occasion and posted a perfect 4-0 record on the season with a 3.04 ERA.  Robertshaw also struck out 51 batters in 53 innings of work, helping his team to a Region 14 runner-up finish.

Out of Cedar Park High School, the 210-pound flamethrower was a first-team all-district selection and 5A honorable mention for all-state.  Robertshaw was named Cedar Park's Athlete of the Year, as well as Hill Country News County MVP with a 11-3 record and 1.96 ERA as a senior.  The Cedar Park standout retired 101 batters in 83 innings before his team lost to eventual national champion Plano West in the fourth round of the state playoffs.  Robertshaw was just as successful in the classroom, posting a 3.81 GPA.

Coach Conger talked about Robertshaw's signing for the program.

"Britt is a tremendous addition to this recruiting class," said Conger.  "He is a big, strong righty that has a fastball in the low 90's and has been as high as 94 mph in the past.  Britt has experience both starting and closing and will give us some very nice options in either of those types of roles this year.  He has experience against Mountain West Conference, Southland Conference and SEC competition at the D1 level, and we look forward to watching him compete with us."
