The North Babylon, N.Y. native played soccer at Hofstra before coming to Molloy. With the Pride, he netted 12 goals and tallied six assists in 67 matches, advancing to the Colonial Athletic Association final in both 2010 and 2012. Botte, who was a team captain, earned All-Colonial Athletic Association honors in 2013 and a NCAA Second Team All-American selection in 2012.
