He recorded his first collegiate goals in a game against the Miami Redhawks on October 30, 2015.[8] At the conclusion of the season, he recorded seven goals and 15 assists for a total of 22 points.[9] He was also one of six St. Cloud State University rookies named to the NCHC Academic All-Conference Team and was later added to the NCHC Scholar-Athlete Team.[10] In his sophomore season, he led the Huskies with 20 assists and was a recipient of the a 2017 All-NCHC Academic Award.[9]
