As a Blue Hen

2004-05 Season: Speedy guard...great defender who also has a 40-inch vertical leap...will see significant playing time in the Blue Hen backcourt...enters the season ranked 21st all-time at Delaware with 118 career three-point attempts...

2003-04 Season: Appeared in all but one game on the year...averaged 5.5 points per game...ranked fourth on the team with 22 steals...was 15th in the league in CAA games with 1.29 three-pointers made per game...scored a career-high 20 points, hitting 6-of-10 three-point field goal attempts, at Hofstra on February 4...scored a team-high 17 points and was 3-of-3 from behind the arc in the season-opening 75-72 overtime win at Mount St. Mary's on November 21...hit for double figures in five other games...posted a double-double with 10 points and a career-best 10 rebounds in the 80-76 overtime win over Towson on February 7...hit a three-pointer at the buzzer to force overtime as the Blue Hens rallied from a six-point deficit in the final minute and defeated William & Mary, 93-82, on January 21...hit a three-pointer in the final minute of both overtimes at Virginia Commonwealth on February 25...

High School: Two-time all-conference honorable mention selection and three-year starter at Edward White HS...graduated from Edward White in 2001, but was not recruited (partly because his team had four coaches in four years)...he is the first player from Edward White HS in 11 years to earn a basketball scholarship at a Division I school...played a season of recreation league ball and was mentored by former Clemson guard Grayson Marshall (Marshall later called Delaware coaches to put them onto Washington)...named MVP of the Johnny T.
