Making the 18th start of his rookie campaign, de Vries helped SFU hold the NEC’s top scoring team in check. The rookie defender and the Red Flash closed out the regular season by shutting down Robert Morris to solidify the No. 2 seed in the upcoming NEC Tournament. RMU had scored 33 goals in the 17 games prior to regular season finale. Saint Francis built a 3-0 lead before Robert Morris’ Neco Brett finally broke through in the 61st minute of the eventual 4-1 victory.
