That season, George averaged 20.3 points per game en route to being named the 1985-86 MAAC Player of the Year. He finished his college career as Fairfield's all-time leading scorer with 2,006 points.  George still holds the single season records for most points (630) and field goals made (226), both achieved during the 1985-86 season.  He is one of 36 men's basketball players that have earned a spot in the Fairfield Athletics Hall of Fame, inducted in the Class of 1991.
