Senior Year (2011)
Following a season in which he earned the much coveted SLIAC Player of the Year, Thomas returns with lots of promise to make his senior season the most impressive of his illustrious career as the Gold & Blue custodian.  He has clearly emerged as a leader and over the years has done a tremendous job organizing the team from the back and this upcoming season should be much of the same.  He spent most of the summer playing PDL soccer with St. Louis Lions and looks to parlay some of that success with us this fall.  He has the chance to become the most decorated goalkeeper in Principia history.

Junior Year (2010)

Samuel is the only returning member of the squad that was an All-Central Region player after a stellar year in which he only allowed 17 goals  with a goal against average of 0.99.  He will be counted on this year to provide strong leadership from the back while continuing to excel in his role as the sole custodian of the panther fortunes.  Thomas spent his summer playing for the PDL St. Louis Lions and is ready to pick off where left off last season.

Sophomore Year (2009)

Samuel's first year proved to be a season of growth as would be expected of any first year college keeper.  His growth and maturation will be key to the Panthers success this fall.  He is an incredible athlete with great potential and will be a key figure in our success this season.  As the saying goes  "as goes Samuel so do the Panthers."  Poise will be the attribute we look for in Thomas this fall as he develops to take on a leadership role within the group
