Sophomore (2008):

Molnar earned all-UAA second team honors, while compiling one of the best all-around statistical seasons in Emory history.  He reached base in every Emory game during the season (42-straight games dating back to the 2007 season), and led the team with a .389 batting average and 46 runs scored, while swatting three home runs, three triples, and driving in 31 runs.  Molnar started all 37 games for the Eagles, and finished the year 35 walks, the second-best single season total in school history, and a .511 on base percentage, the sixth-best mark in school history.  He tied for the team lead with 19 multiple-hit games, and recorded a 13 game hitting streak, the second-longest by an Eagle during the year.  The sophomore drove in four runs in two games, and three runs in three games over the campaign.  Molnar finished the year ranking third in school history with a career .486 on base percentage, sixth with a .527 slugging percentage, eighth with a .366 batting average, and ninth with six triples.

Freshman (2007):

Molnar completed an extremely successful first season with the Eagles in 2007.  After becoming the first freshman to make an opening day start for the Eagles since the 2003 season, Molnar went on to hit .341 during the year with three home runs and 25 runs batted in, and lead Eagles in triples (three), walks (25), and stolen base percentage (16 steals on 17 attempts), despite making just 35 starts during the year.  His 43 runs scored and .458 on base percentage were both second-best on the team in 2007.  At the University Athletic Association Tournament, Molnar hit .300 with seven runs scored and a tournament-best two home runs in five games.  The freshman batted .350 with two doubles, seven runs scored and four RBIs over six games at the NCAA Division III Championship Tournament.  He went three-for-four against Chapman University (Calif.) and drove in three runs against the University of Wisconsin-Stevens Point, while tying an NCAA Championship record by scoring two runs in the sixth inning of the game.
