The Education major from Springfield OH scored 635 career points while at UD, set records of 242 points in one season and 30 points in one game making him, according to Chris Montgomery of Flyer News, Feb. 11, 1977, “the most prolific scorer in UD history up until the time he played for the Flyers.”
