Because of his small stature, he was passed over by many top NCAA football programs, despite having 4.4 speed and being a two-star prospect according to Rivals.com He went to Northwood University in Midland, Michigan where he was coached by Pat Reipma. During his freshman season at Northwood, he did not see any time as running back or receiver, but he did find his way onto the field through special teams. As the primary kickoff returner, his lone touchdown came on a 91-yard kickoff return. In his sophomore season, he made an impact by being a big play maker on offense, both with rushing attempts and receptions, as he had the highest average yard gains per attempt on the team. In his junior year, his offensive load increased again. His senior year, he saw a slight decline in his playing time, losing his kickoff returning duties. He ranks 23rd in all-time rushing yards in Northwood history with 1,381. He also holds the school's single-season punt return yards with 319 in 2003.
