Haworth enters his senior season as the unquestionable leader for the Purple Eagles. Last season, Haworth earned All-MAAC First Team and NSCAA All-Region Second Team honors while placing second in the conference with 11 goals and 26 points. Haworth's accolades helped earn him the 2011 MAAC Preseason Player of the Year honor. He begins the season tied for fifth in program history with 23 goals and seventh in points with 59. Haworth has been listed as a top senior prospect by TopDrawerSoccer.com's Joe Mauceri, ahead of two players from defending national champion Akron and was the highest ranked senior from the MAAC.
