At Rivers, Roblin earned varsity letters four times in baseball and soccer and three times in basketball. He was an All-Independent School League selection twice in soccer and baseball. As a junior, he led the ISL in hitting with a .545 average. Roblin was named a Globe All-Scholastic for baseball in his senior year and led the league in homeruns. He also won an ISL and two New England Championships as a member of the soccer team.
Also at Rivers, Roblin was named the recipient of two consecutive Andrew N. Navoni Awards. This prestigious baseball award is presented annually to the member of the varsity baseball team who exemplifies the qualities of leadership, superior sportsmanship, total dedication and desire for competitive excellence.
"He's one of the rare student-athletes who was named the winner of a team award in back to back years," said Director of Athletics Jim McNally. "This achievement summarizes Brad’s character and effort. Additionally, he accomplished all this in a very unassuming and modest way."
