Honor Nick's Legacy
A graduate of Barnegat High School, Nick joined the Ramapo College community in spring 2022 to pursue a Bachelor of Arts in Social Science. He was a respected student-athlete and proud four-year member of the Ramapo College baseball team whose impact extended far beyond the mound.
A record-setting pitcher, Nick appeared in 45 games, including 38 starts, and logged 230.2 innings. He struck out 225 batters over his career—the most in College history—and earned 20 victories. He helped lead the Roadrunners through countless memorable moments, including a semifinal victory in the 2024 NJAC Tournament.
Known for his determination and love of the game, Nick recorded more than 50 strikeouts in each of his final three seasons, including a career-best 72 in 2025. His accomplishments earned him multiple NJAC honors and regional team selections. He realized a lifelong dream by signing a professional contract with the Bakersfield Train Robbers of the Pecos League, where he struck out 32 batters in eight appearances.
During his standout senior season, Nick posted a 7–3 record and a career-high 72 strikeouts. Following the season, he was named to the ABCA/Rawlings NCAA Division III All-Region IV Second Team and the D3baseball.com All-Region IV Third Team.
Nick's greatest legacy was not measured only in records or wins, but in the dedication, joy, kindness, and fierce competitive spirit he brought to everyone around him. Those qualities defined his time as a Roadrunner and will continue to shape the lives of those who knew him.
Please join us in honoring Nick by making a contribution to name Ramapo's home bullpen in his memory.
