Career

Brophy began attending

National Tournament, the selection committee chose to invite Clarkson as the top eastern seed. The Golden Knights won their semifinal match against Michigan and made their first ever championship game, however, they were no match for Michigan Tech
and were throttled 1–8.

In Brophy's senior season, Clarkson performed nearly as well as they had in 1962. The team finished second in their conference and Brophy's defensive acumen was recognized by his being named an All-American. Clarkson received a second seed for the conference tournament but fell to a very strong Harvard team in the semifinal. The Golden Knights won the consolation game and believed their season was over, however, the Ivy League schools were in the midst of an argument with the NCAA over player eligibility and Harvard declined the invitation to the NCAA tournament. As a result, Clarkson was offered the bid and the team accepted. Clarkson was unable to overcome Denver in the semifinal but did win the consolation game, ending their season on a high note.
