2015-16: Senior forward whose season was hindered by a midseason wrist surgery… averaged 13.5 points per game…scored 41 points in the 160-156 double-overtime thriller against Roanoke College - good for fourth all-time for points in a game…averaged a career high 5.5 rebounds per game…named to 2016 ODAC All-Tournament Team en route to winning the 2016 ODAC Championship...joined the 1,000 point club this winter.
2014-2015: The junior took a major step forward…played in 25 games, starting 23 of them…missed time because of an injury, and despite playing few minutes in the games he did not start, still managed to average 14.9 points per game…topped the 20 point mark nine times during the year, including a career-high 33 against Roanoke, his first large action after an injury…the athletic forward was named to the All-ODAC Third-Team for his first post-season award in his career…tallied a double-double (14 points, 13 rebounds) in the game against NCAA tourney participant Stockton…while he stepped up greatly during his junior year, the coaches will once again expect a major jump in his final season, and look to be once again one of the best players in the ODAC.
2013-14: Athletic sophomore once again played in every game… Averaged nine points on the year, improving on his output from the previous year… Was named to the Buzz Ridl All-Tournament team after averaging 12.5 points in the tournament… Versatile defender who guarded players at different positions using his size and athleticism at different points… With the losses to graduation, the coaching staff will expect him to have an even greater impact and improve on his averages once again.
2012-13: Extremely athletic wing who makes highlight reel dunks made an immediate impact for the Hornets… Appeared in all 27 games, averaging seven points per game on the year… Scored a season-high 21 points in a win at Roanoke, but had his best game against EMU, scoring only 18 points but helping out in every other way… Will be asked to shoulder a larger role next year.
