2024:
The electric graduate midfielder was plagued by a back injury for most of the season, but it did not stop him from continuing to make a huge splash and set personal bests. He was only able to start one game, and his minutes remained well below the 500 mark at 456. However, he still put up the fourth-most shots on the team (19) with seven on-target. Tubbs chipped in four goals this year to help him reach the double digit mark on his career and set a new career-high for most goals in a single season. He also had his first career multi-goal game against Providence Christian, where he also played a season-high 55 minutes and took a season-high 6 shots. One of his other goals was the winner against Azusa Pacific (W, 1-0), which he scored at the start of the 42nd minute courtesy of Cooper Clark. Even on the plays that he did not score on (á la the bicycle kick that was only prevented from being an all-time highlight due to a miraculous save by the opposing goalie), Tubbs left his mark. Tubbs tallied one assist this year, coming against Hawaii Hilo to bring his career total to 9. Tubbs' creativity and height in the box made him a threat in live play and on set pieces throughout his career, and it appears he saved his best for last.



You get to play your sport with a legend from the game, living or dead. Who are you playing with?
I would love to play with Sergio Aguero because he was my favorite player growing up.

One of my favorite childhood memories was going to my grandparent's lake house in Nevada every summer with my whole family.

Do you have a pregame ritual or superstition? Any reason?
My pregame ritual is to clean my cleats the night before each game and on the day of my game, I play a couple of games of Clash Royale on my phone.
