They just didn't know how great a player he would become, Howard a junior for USC Aiken has broken the single season USC Aiken RBI record with 93 on the season. The Pacers completed their regular season schedule today with 2-wins over UNC Penbrooke, they also claimed the Peach Belt regular season championship.
Howard broke the single season RBI record previously held by Chad Jacobsen (Drafted by the Colorado Rockies, last season). The previous record held by Jacobsen was 80-RBI's.
This season Howard has been on fire, he is leading the Pacers in batting average, hitting .407 in 216 at-bats, 93-RBI's and 17 home runs.
Congratulations to the former USC Salkehatchie Indian from the entire USC Salkehatchie family!!
I will keep you updated on Travis as the Pacers prepare for the Peach Belt tournament and beyond.
The Pacers are currently ranked #7 in the NCAA Division II.
