Voted the G-MAC Freshman of the Year as a rookie in 2017, Cobb has only built on his strong year as a sophomore. His most recent body of work was representation of his five-tool skillset as the dangerous leadoff man for the Pioneers’ lineup.
 
Cobb was 9-for-21 in five games with a pair of doubles, a home run, a triple and five stolen bases. He had eight RBI and scored six runs while putting up the line of the cycle in just five games.
 
Cobb had a pair of three-hit games, stole a base in all five contests and also reached after being hit by a pitch.
 
Cobb was a double away from the cycle against Davis & Elkins in game two of the doubleheader, a matchup where he drove in six.
 
The left-handed hitting Cobb launched a three-run blast in the second inning as the Pioneers took a 6-0 lead. He singled in his next plate appearance before legging out a two-run triple later in the sixth inning.
 
Cobb also doubled for extra bases in a non-conference game against nationally-ranked Mercyhurst on Monday.
 
Cobb is now hitting .311, second on the team behind Todd Ropp, in 27 games played. He has 28 hits and is 19-for-21 in his stolen base attempts.
