A 5-foot-7-inch forward, Meehan scored 81 points and grabbed 17 rebounds in 23 games last season.

But Meehan shined when it mattered most, draining a team-best 15 points in No. 6-seed Middletown South’s 56-50 victory over third-ranked Freehold Township in Central Jersey, Group 4 NJSIAA sectional tournament, quarterfinal round in 2020.

The River Hawks posted a 15-10 mark and went 7-7 in Landmark Conference action in the 2019-20 campaign.
