Campbell becomes the first Royal to earn Player of the Year honors since 2019 (Connor Harding) and just the third in program history (Chris Bligh, 2010). He was also named Landmark Conference Baseball Most Valuable Player after a strong tournament showing, finishing with six hits and four RBI, including a 2-for-4 performance with an RBI in the championship game against Elizabethtown.
Campbell set the program’s single-season hits record on May 9 against Susquehanna, breaking the mark during the championship run. He now has 196 career hits and also moves into the conference record book, ranking among the career leaders in games played (164, tied for first), games started (144, tied for eighth), at-bats (579, fifth), runs scored (160, fourth), and hits (196, tied for eighth).
He has now been part of two Landmark Conference championship teams. He is making his second NCAA Tournament appearance, as Scranton opens regional play against Bridgewater College (Va.) on Friday, May 11 at 11:00 a.m.
