Suffolk has produced many top-notch hockey players over the years, but there is one individual who stands out above the rest. He is Brian “Scorin” Horan and he is in a
class by himself.

Horan, a gutsy 5-8 center, completed his spectacular career as Suffolk men’s hockey all-time leading scorer with 302 points – 169 goals, 133 assists. He led his Suffolk team each of his four years in goals, assists, and total points.

Putting the puck in the net came easily for Horan even at an early age. He was the leading scorer on the Somerville High School hockey team during his junior and senior seasons, and was a Greater Boston League All-Star selection in each of those years.

At Suffolk, Horan’s name is at the top of the list in almost every individual scoring category, including most three-goal hat tricks in a season, 11, and career, 30.

While his offensive statistics speak for themselves, Horan was also a productive defensive player. His all-purpose play triggered the 1990-91 Suffolk team to its greatest season in school history, compiling an overall record of 22-5 and becoming a finalist in the ECAC Division III North Tournament. As a senior, he led the nation in total points, 104, was voted ECAC North Player of the Year for the second time in three years, and named to the ECAC All-Star team for the third consecutive season.

Horan was head coach of the Suffolk hockey team from 1999 to 2004. Under his guidance, the Rams reached the ECAC Northeast Division III playoffs in 2004 for the first time since 1993.
