He's most famous for his complete game victory in the championship game of the 2003 College World Series, bringing Rice's first ever team championship to South Main. He was also a three-time All-America and first round draft pick of the New York Mets. He's experienced life in the big leagues and he's working his way back. He'll be checking in with RUBPA all season. He's Philip Humber, aka The Shark.

Hey guys, its Humber here again with another update...

This was a good week for me. I’m throwing the ball well after a few rough outings. More importantly though, my fiancé was in town for this home stand; it is always nice to have her around. I love seeing familiar faces during the season. It gets a little lonesome on the road sometimes. Even in college you grow a little tired of seeing the same faces for hours a day. It’s refreshing to see someone not in uniform and not in a jockstrap.

As a team, we had a rough stretch. Hopefully, the dry air in Tucson and Las Vegas will clear our heads. Personally, I feel like I pitched a lot better than the results indicate, and I'm going to try to continue the progress I'm making with my next start.

I'm excited for the Owls to come back from finals and carry the momentum they have all the way to Omaha! Can't wait to see the guys on TV and, while I’m excited to be where I am, I’d love to be at the RUBPA crawfish boil this Saturday. That sounds like a blast. Have fun and bring those Owls a victory.

Thanks for reading and Go Owls!
