2011: Began the season as ASU's Friday night starter before settling into the No. 2 spot in the rotation for much of the season … finished second on staff with 14 starts (16 appearances), six wins (6-5 overall), 88.2 innings pitched and 70 strikeouts … 4.26 ERA was good for second among ASU's weekend starters … went at least five innings in all 14 starts … control was Achilles' heel throughout the year, as he walked a team-high 56 batters over 88.2 innings … as ASU's opening-day starter, allowed only two hits and struck out six over five shutout innings versus Maryland-Eastern Shore (Feb. 18) … despite going at least six innings over his next three starts (Feb. 24 at No. 20 Miami (Fla.), March 4 at The Citadel, March 12 vs. Elon) and striking out a total of 18, suffered the loss in all three to fall to 1-3 on the campaign … split his next two decisions, striking out six and allowing only one run on four hits to earn ASU's first SoCon win of the season at UNC Greensboro (March 19) but was tagged with a tough-luck loss after allowing just two runs on four hits over seven innings versus Cornell (March 25) … rebounded from the 2-4 start to win four of his final five decisions of the campaign … was especially impressive in April, going 2-1 with a 2.43 ERA and .204 opponents batting average on the month … earned back-to-back wins versus Wofford (April 2) and Furman (April 9) … was named SoCon Pitcher of the Week for his performance versus Furman, when he did not allow an earned run while surrendering just four hits and striking out six over a season-best eight innings … was tagged with his only loss of the month despite going seven innings in a 5-4 loss to Samford (April 16) … struck out eight in just six innings and allowed only one earned run but did not figure in the decision in 4-3 victory at Davidson (April 23) … made his only two relief appearances of the season to bookend final exams and did not allow a hit over four innings out of the bullpen versus North Carolina A&T (April 27) and East Tennessee State (May 4) … ERA dipped to 3.22 after the relief stint versus ETSU, its lowest point since the opening-day shutout over UMES … after a couple of tough-luck losses earlier in the season, picked up a couple of wins when not pitching his best versus Western Carolina (May 8) and College of Charleston (May 14) … lasted just five innings in each win and walked a total of 11 batters while allowing nine earned runs on 14 hits but left with the lead in ASU's 10-9 and 8-5 wins over WCU and CofC, respectively … closed the season with a pair of no decisions in ASU wins, allowing five runs over 5.1 innings versus Georgia Southern (May 20) and tossing 6.1 effective frames (four runs, four strikeouts) in SoCon Tournament win over UNC Greensboro (May 26).

2010: Began the season buried deep in the bullpen and worked his way into the weekend rotation by mid-April ... appeared in 20 games in all with 15 relief appearances and five starts ... established himself as one of the staff's top pitchers by surrendering runs in just two of his first 10 appearances out of the bullpen, including a string of 13.1-consecutive innings of scoreless relief from March 17-April 4 ... made his mark by tossing four hitless innings against Western Carolina on March 20, nearly allowing the Mountaineers to battle all the way back from an early 10-0 deficit before ASU fell 10-7 ... picked up his first career win in his next relief appearance by striking out six in 4.2 scoreless, two-hit innings against East Tennessee State (March 30) ... capped the spectacular run of shutout work out of he bullpen with three hitless innings against Furman on April 4 ... the next Sunday, he was inserted to the starting rotation and responded by fanning a season-high nine, allowing three runs on three hits over six innings to move to 2-0 with a win over Davidson (April 11) ... struggled for the rest of the regular season, losing his final three starts and allowing runs in seven of his final eight appearances ... rebounded to turn in an impressive performance against Western Carolina at the SoCon Tournament (May 29), holding WCU without an earned run and matching his career high with nine strikeouts over seven innings but didn't receive a decision in ASU's 3-2 walkoff triumph.
