Steve Myers broke into collegiate baseball with a bang, going 1-for-2, including a game-winning double, in his first game at Rutgers-Camden. His one-out double in the bottom of the eighth inning lifted the Raptors to a 3-2 victory over Waynesburg College (Feb. 24) and earned him honors as the New Jersey Athletic Conference Rookie of the Week on Feb. 26.

        For the season, the right fielder appeared in 17 games, making 10 starts. He had one RBI, five runs scored, one double, four walks and a sacrifice, while hitting .171. He also had a perfect fielding percentage of 1.000 with 18 putouts and three assists in 21 chances.

        In four starts midway through the season, Myers compiled a four-game hitting streak while going 6-for-13 (.462) with three runs and two walks. His biggest day came against perennial New Jersey Athletic Conference powerhouse Montclair State University (April 7), when he went 2-for-4 with one run scored in each game of a doubleheader.

        Defensively, Myers had his career high of five total chances (four putouts and one assist) against The College of New Jersey (April 22).
