Soccer Achievements
2005 : As a Freshman at UVA appeared in seven games and registered his first collegiate goal before transferring to Lehigh University.
2006: A First Team All Patriot League Selection as well as an NSCAA First Team All Region Selection. Helped Lehigh to College Soccer’s Elite 8 along with Rage teammate Adam Gazda.
2007: A balanced performance he registered 5 goals and 5 assists for Lehigh. Played in five games with the Rage before going down to injury for the remainder of the season. Showed a great deal of promise in the matches he did appear in though.
Also spent time with the Region 1 ODP team before college.
Jimmy is a calm, confident forward with a nose for goal. He will look to be a more consistent fixture in the Rage team this year.
