St. Lawrence University Athletics

The Watertown, N.Y. native, Eric was drawn to St. Lawrence when looking for a university known for its academics and a chance to play football. During his initial visit, Eric was blown away by the campus and felt welcome by students and faculty and felt that SLU was the right place for him. He also noted that there were several people who helped him with his decision, noting his high school principal at the time, St. Lawrence alum Stephen Todd. On the gridiron, Eric played in 27 games and rushed for 1,037 yards and nine touchdowns and caught 18 passes for 169 yards, earning both First Team and Second-Team All-Liberty League honors. In addition to playing football for the Scarlet and Brown, Eric was also a successful member of the Saints Track & Field Team. Eric won the weight throw with a mark of 19.13 meters to claim the national title at the NCAA Indoor Track & Field Championships at DePauw University in March of 2010. A former team captain, he's a two-time All-American, and an ECAC record holder winning three events from 2007-11. Following graduation, he noted that he has been fortunate to work and live in several different states across the country. Eric works for Bank of America in the Small Business Lending Sector and enjoys volunteering in his local community. Eric now resides in Los Angeles, California with his spouse Anna.
