Character

Bauer suffered two torn ACL’s in high school and played fewer than five minutes during his freshman year, but in 2009 he emerged and earned in the team’s Most Improved Player award and enters his senior season as a team captain. As a student athlete with a diagnosed learning disability (dyslexia), Bauer spends a lot of his time giving back by mentoring athletes and students with learning disabilities.

Community

Bauer traveled with Touch the World Foundation’s Annual trip to Jaurez, Mexico, to build a school during January 2008. In 2009 he was a special-education tutor at a local high school and he also has served as a peer mentor to first-year student-athletes at Lafayette. Bauer also was one of 10 Lafayette students selected to work with the Ministry of Education and the United States Embassy during a two-week trip to Madagascar to aid Malagasy students in their efforts to apply to American universities.

Competition

In his junior season, Bauer was named co-offensive player of the year on Lafayette after ranking fifth in the nation in assists per game. He tallied 15 goals and 30 assists and was put on the Tewaaraton Watch List as a candidate for NCAA Division I Player of the Year. Lafayette’s offense last season ranked sixth in the nation.
