2016-2017 VaSID Academic All-State
2017 All-ODAC Third-Team
2017 Ray Rostan Sportsmanship Team

2017: Finished up a tremendous, three-year career with an outstanding season…was one of the best defensemen in the ODAC…worked as the top guy for the WildCats, routinely guarding the best player on the other team…helped shut down several of the best in the region…thrived in that role…led the ODAC with 39 caused turnovers and picked up 53 ground balls, which was good for 16th in the league…had a CT in all but two games on the year…had two or more CTs in 11 contests…caused six turnovers against Shenandoah and Centre…also used his speed and strength to help clear the ball for Randolph…picked up three or more ground balls in 11 games…picked up six against Centre and Methodist…was named to the Ray Rostan Sportsmanship Team for his outstanding attitude…ends his career third in caused turnovers (88) and fifth in ground balls (173) in just three seasons…will be missed by the team and the staff and other areas of the department that he helped.

2016: Made another impressive jump in only his second season on the lacrosse field…used his speed and strength to become one of the top defenders in the conference…often times placed on one of the better offensive options…started all 17 games, and would always be placed on the wing on faceoffs to help the team regain possession…led the team with 71 ground balls, which was good for eighth in the conference…also forced 27 turnovers, second-best on the team, and tied for fifth in the ODAC…scored his first-career goal against Southern Virginia…will look to take on the top shutdown role in his final season with the WildCats.

2015: Was a very important part of the defense in his first year with the team…played and started every game as one of the poles…was second on the team in both groundballs (49) and caused turnovers (22)…scooped up 11 groundballs and forced five turnovers in the win over Methodist University…picked up an assist in the win over Greensboro and against Ferrum…won two faceoff attempts against Hampden-Sydney…will look to once again be one of the top options in the back for the WildCats.
