2015-16: Senior forward was a defensive anchor in his final campaign…played in all 30 games making a start on Senior Day…was second on the team in total blocked shots with 26…led the team in blocks in 12 games this season…averaged 4.9 points per contest…recorded a season high of 10 points verses Ferrum…averaged 4.5 rebounds per game…ranked ninth in the ODAC with 2.1 offensive rebounds per game…will be tough for the coaching staff to replace next year.
2014-2015: As with his sophomore season, the long forward added an even better junior campaign…the strong and athletic post, played in every game, while starting four of them during the heart of the season…tied his career-high of 12 points in just 18 minutes in the narrow one-point loss to NCAA tournament participant…averaged five points and four rebounds per game during the year…notched an impressive 46 offensive rebounds during the year, which contributed to his work ethic around the basket…the coaching staff expects the leader to provide even more help and take on a larger role in his final season.
2013-14: Post player took a significant leap in his second season… Long and athletic force around the middle played in every game this year, including starting his first career game… Averaged 4.9 points on the season and twice scored his career-high of 12 points: at Gallaudet and against Virginia University of Lynchburg… Intimidating shot-blocker, who nearly averaged one block a game… Had three blocks against Bridgewater College… Coaches will expect him to make another sizeable leap in the transition from his sophomore to junior year.
2012-13: Long and athletic freshman who prefers to rip the rim off when he dunks the ball… Saw time in 19 games on the year, routinely going to the free throw line in every game… Smart defender who can block anybody’s shot, but will also look to take charges as well… With continued work and development in the offseason, he will get many chances next year to make a larger impact.
Before LC: Started for three years for Riverbend High School… Was named Third-Team All-Commonwealth District and Defensive Player of the Year as a senior.
