Curtis earns the first All-State award of his college career after averaging 18.8 points, 3.1 rebounds, and 2.7 assists per game while shooting 43.3% (174-402) from the floor, 38.0% (101-266) from downtown, and 80.8% (59-73) from the FT line in 27 games this winter. He paced the Monks in scoring average, points (508), three-pointers made (101), free throws made (59) and free-throw percentage during his senior season.

The senior co-captain led the Monks in scoring in 13 different games and made at least one three-pointer in all but one contest during the 2021-22 campaign. In a home game versus Norwich University on January 15th, Curtis became the 43rd member of the SJC Men's Basketball 1,000-Point Club when he hit a three-pointer with 3:48 left in the first half.

In four collegiate seasons Curtis has scored 1,230 points with 251 rebounds, 238 assists, and 100 steals while shooting 46.3% (424-915) from the floor, 41.7% (257-616) from three-point range, and 78.1% (125-160) from the FT line in 86 career games.
