6th in strike outs (78), 10th in ERA (2.14) and tied for 25th in wins (6). Offensively, the Royals finished the year
nationally ranked 9th in OBP (.397), 16th in runs scored (309), 16th in walks (184), 21st in batting average
(.292), 22nd in runs batted in (239), 25th in stolen bases (85) and 25th in slugging percentage

Mention. In addition, Villasmil was selected to the All-Arkansas Collegiate Baseball Team as an Honorable
Mention player, which is made up from the state’s colleges/universities that have baseball programs (21)
ranging from NCAA D1, D2, D3, NAIA and JUCO players.
In the program's inaugural season, with a roster of 24 freshmen and 2 sophomores, Hardie guided the Royals
to the #1 seed for the Central Region Tournament, finishing as the runner-up and one game away from the
NCCAA Division I College World Series. For their efforts, the Royals finished the year with a 27-22 record and

addition, David Torres (Fr/RHP), also from Maracaibo, Venezuela, joined Villasmil on the All-Central Region 1st
Team. Villasmil hit .348 with 8 doubles, 2 home runs and 26 runs batted in. Villasmil was the cog of the Royals
defense, neutralizing opponent’s running game, throwing out 38 base runners in just 45 stolen base
attempts. Torres was a deceptive 4-7 on the mound, but the Central Region Selection Committee took notice
that in 59.1 innings of work, he gave up just 24 earned runs, had 72 strike outs and an earn run average of
2.45 facing most opponents #1 or #2 pitcher during a weekend series.
Royals Baseball has not only found success on the field in its first two years of collegiate baseball, but in the
classroom as well with a 3.15 cumulative grade point average (GPA).
