Dorchester’s Lance Greene, a senior guard and captain of the Endicott College men’s basketball team, etched his name in the school’s history books on Saturday when he scored his 1,000th career collegiate point late in the first half in a non-conference game at Clark (Mass.). Greene scored a season-high 22 points against the Cougars in a losing outing, 80-74.
Greene finished an efficient 8-of-9 from the floor and 6-of-8 at the free throw line to go along with four rebounds, three steals, and two assists. The senior’s jumper with 3:16 remaining in the first half put him over 1,000 points for his career.
He now has 1,012 points for his career and is 15 points behind Graham Whitelaw ‘10 for eighth on the all-time Endicott leader board. For his career, Greene has averaged 14.4 points per game. This season, he is scoring at career-high rate of 16.2 points per game.
Greene attended Lexington High. He is majoring in sports management at Endicott, which is located in Beverly, MA. The 5-2 Endicott Gulls’ next game is a 1 p.m. Saturday tip-off against Lesley University.
