2023-24: Proving to be an 'ironman', Larsen returned to play in every game once again for the Lions, starting in every game except for Senior Night. Larsen improved on last year's scoring output, putting up over 12 points per game and shooting a higher percentage from deep (.308). Larsen was sixth in the conference in field-goal percentage at 57.1%. Larsen also cleaned up the boards more this year, elevating that mark to 4.7 rpg. Another marked increase saw Larsen's steals go up to 30 - over twice as many as last year. Larsen was dominant in his first matchup with The Master's this year, dropping his career high of 26 pts on 10-16 shooting to go along with six rebounds. He had four other 20-point performances to add on to his impressive campaign, including a 24 pts/6 reb/2 ast performance at Jessup. He marked his season-high in rebounds (8) on two occasions - first against Montana Tech and then at Menlo. Larsen played over 34 minutes four times this year, including a career-high in minutes (36) in the first matchup against OUAZ.
