Career
Lewis began attending
Lewis again led the team in scoring, during his senior season, and helped the Eagles reach the tournament for the third consecutive year. They were unable to repeat their performance, surrendering 10 goals in each games to finish in fourth place. Lewis finished his career at BC with the highest goal total and second most points in program history. Because he played relatively few games he has been passed on the all-time list by many succeeding players, but he's still near the top in both points per game and
BC records on Lewis' statistics are a bit muddled. The program list him as having scored 65 goals in 54 games, however, it also lists him as scoring 20 goals in 1947, 23 goals in 1949 and 26 goals in 1950.[3][4] This would leave him with 69 goals in those three years alone. It's likely that the school's totals exclude his first season as that was not played under NCAA oversight. In any event, Lewis was one of the most prolific scorers to wear an Eagles sweater and in recognition of his accomplishments he was inducted into the Boston College Hall of Fame in 1981.
Lewis is the last surviving member of the 1949 championship team.[5]
