2024 Season: Kris Naicker continued to contribute to the back line as a starting back, picking up 15 starts through the team’s 17 games. He came in as a reserve twice, picking up the opportunities against Iona and Merrimack. He posted one goal during his final campaign, netting the Stags’ first goal in a 2-2 draw with Canisius in November. He was active up front with nine shots which placed fifth on the team. With six shots on goal, his .667 shot on goal percentage was fourth best among his teammates.

2023 Season: Naicker became a late season addition to the starting lineup, securing a spot among the first 11 in the team’s final eight matches. The stretch began with his appearance against Niagara and carried through six games in October and the season finale against Quinnipiac. His play often frustrated the opposition primarily in the Stags’ defensive third. He did pick up one point during the campaign, posting an assist in the team’s 3-2 loss to Marist at home. He also added six shots to his season totals, putting three on goal (two at Siena and one vs. Quinnipiac).
