Bio

As a Freshman in 2013: Made five appearances on the mound for the Ravens, including one start...Logged 6.1 innings and posted a 4.26 ERA...Allowed three runs on two hits, walked four, hit a batter, threw a wild pitch and struck out six...Recorded a .100 opponent batting average (2-for-20) and did not record a decision...Made his collegiate debut, took over to start the seventh with a 16-2 lead, logged two scoreless innings, walked one and struck out a season-best three against West Virginia Wesleyan on 2/22...Made his first career start, but left after two innings and 40 pitches, allowed three runs on two hits, walked one, hit a batter, threw a wild pitch and struck out one, but did not factor in the decision, as the offense later got him off the hook at Nova Southeastern on 3/18...Took over with a runner on first and nobody out as the bullpen tried to keep things at a one-run deficit in the eighth, got a groundout and then had a runner thrown out trying to steal, but then walked the next batter and was pulled, though his remaining runner was stranded by the next pitcher and offense rallied for the lead in the bottom half of the inning in the second game of a doubleheader against Massachusetts Lowell on 3/30...Came on with two on, two out and the bullpen working with a 16-4 lead in the sixth, immediately got a groundout to strand both runners and wound up working 1.1 scoreless, hitless innings, walked one and struck out two in the first game of a doubleheader against New Haven on 4/7.
