Junior (2006):

Meehan started each of Emory's 17 games during his first season as the Eagles' full-time goalkeeper.  The junior recorded six shutouts during the season (including two in UAA play), the fifth-best total in school history.  Meehan's 0.93 goals against average was the 10th-lowest single-season mark in school history, and his career 0.72 GAA is only .01 away from the best average in Emory history.  He made 54 saves during the season while compiling an 11-6 record, and assisted on one goal during the season, coming in the season-opening game against Wisconsin-Lutheran.

Sophomore (2005):

The goalkeeper started four games for the Eagles, and participated in six overall during his sophomore campaign.  Meehan compiled a 5-0-0 record, compiling shutouts in each of his four starts.  Meehan helped the Eagles to a win in their first game of the season, playing all 90 minutes in goal during a 1-0 shutout of the University of Texas in Dallas, and making seven saves.  Meehan finished the season without allowing a goal, and he converted on 18 saves in 450 minutes.
