Freshman (2012):

Hitting out of the leadoff spot the majority of the season, Lake emerged as one of Emory's top offensive threats, batting .337 with 40 runs scored, one home run and 19 runs batted in.  His 55 hits led all Eagles during the season, and his 25 stolen bases were not only the best on the squad, but also the 37th-most by a Division III player in 2012 and 12th-most in a single season in the program's history.  Lake started all 39 games he played in during the season, and his 18 multiple-hit games were the most on the team.  He recorded a 10-game hitting streak, the second-longest by an Eagle in 2012, from February 29th through March 15th, and picked up multiple hits in 10 of 11 games from March 24th through April 19th.  Lake registered four-hit games against Denison University on March 2nd and Piedmont College on March 31st, and drove in a season-best three runs on March 25th at Huntingdon College.  He hit his first career home run on April 19th against Oglethorpe University.  During the University Athletic Association (UAA) Tournament, Lake set a conference record with 11 stolen bases on as many attempts during the eight games, and was tied for the tournament lead with 10 runs scored.  The right fielder added four outfield assists during the campaign.
