Coach’s Take: Brad continues to do well here at Elon. As he becomes more consistent, he becomes more confident in games. We look to have a very confident Brad in 2009.
2008: One of six players to start all 20 contests… netted two goals, including the game-winner in Elon’s 4-3 victory over league rival Furman… added three assists for a total of seven points. 2007: Started in two of his 18 appearances… assisted on two scores, including Elon’s lone goal in a 1-1 tie at top-ranked and eventual national champion Wake Forest.
Prep: Named first-team All-New Jersey by the Newark Star Ledger and first-team All-South Jersey by the Philadelphia Inquirer, Camden Courier Post and Burlington County Times… first-team all-conference selection… netted 25 goals and tallied 62 assists in his Shawnee career… helped the Mt. Laurel Raptors club squad to the New Jersey State Cup final… his 2006 Shawnee team claimed the New Jersey state title, the Coaches Cup crown and the Olympic Conference championship, rating as the top team in the state and as high as fourth in the nation by Student Sports and 10th by the NSCAA… Prep team went 27-0-0 to set the state record for wins in a season.
