He finished third in the Freedom in scoring (18.0 ppg) and ninth in rebounding (7.3 rpg).

He led the league and was 12th in the nation in free throw percentage (88.5%) and was third in the Freedom in shooting (52.4%).

"This is a tremendous honor for Ethan and the Misericordia basketball program," said Misericordia head coach Trevor Woodruff.  "In addition to the basketball game, the service component ties in perfectly to the way we do things at Misericordia."
