Overall, the reigning NEC Rookie of the Year scored three goals and dished out two assists for eight points. On Tuesday, in the Terriers' home opener at Brooklyn Bridge Park, he scored the first ever goal at the new soccer facility less than four minutes into the contest to seal a 3-1 victory against the Peacocks.
He then factored in all four goals in a 4-1 road victory at Howard, scoring twice, including the game-winner, and dishing out two assists. Last year's NEC points leader, Correa currently leads the league in goals (5), goals per game (1.00), points (12) and points per game (2.40). He is among the top-five in assists (2) and assists per contest (0.40).
After being shutout in the season opener at #3 UCONN, Correa has recorded a goal in four straight matches. The last Terrier to achieve a streak like that was, Correa. He accomplished the accolade from October 7th to October 21st, while posting two goals at home against Central Connecticut (10/12/12).
