Academically, he was a regional Academic All-American winner and along with being chosen as the Worcester State top male student-athlete in 2001, he was honored with the prestigious Howard C. Smith Award by the Massachusetts State College Athletic Conference for the top student-athlete in all sports for the 2000-2001 academic year.
