2004: Recorded 48 points, the most productive season by a Retriever since Dan Marohl tallied 52 in 2000...his 33 goals were the most since Casey Hard also scored 33 in 1999...finished second in the America East Conference in both goals and points...was 15th in the nation in those same categories...has now scored at least one goal in 15 straight games and tallied at least two points in his last 12 contests...tied for the team lead with 5 extra-man goals and led squad with a pair of game-winning goals (Quinnpiac, Loyola)...scored 4 goals vs. Delaware, and 3 each vs. Hartford, Quinnipiac, Vermont, and Albany (playoff game)...on April 21 vs. Loyola, he set career bests in goals (7) and points (9), contributing 4 goals and 1 assist as UMBC broke the game open in the fourth quarter...the 7 goals were the most for a Retriever since Chris Turner netted 7 vs. Towson on April 25, 1999 and the 9 points is UMBC’s top effort since Dan Marohl produced 9 (4-5-9) vs. Radford on April 22, 2000...the 7 goals ties for the fifth most in a game by a Retriever.
