St. Thomas went 3-0 on opening week for the first time since 2007. Gilbert was a big reason for that going 6-for-10 blasting the first home run on the year and recording a hit in each of the three contest. The junior slugged 1.000 and reached on base two-thirds of the time this week. Gilbert, the diverse fielder for the Bobcats, has picked up on a new role at first and had been perfect picking up 26 putouts without an error.
