2006: Donovan started every game and earned second-team Empire 8 all-star honors. He was named Ithaca’s Outstanding Back at the team’s postseason banquet after leading the Bombers in rushing and touchdowns. Donovan was named Ithaca’s Honorary Offensive Captain after wins over Hartwick and #14 Springfield. He gained a season-best 120 yards in the latter win and rushed for 105 yards in wins over Huntingdon and Hartwick. Donovan posted two-touchdown performances three times and caught a season-best four passes in the season-opening win over Huntingdon. His touchdown in the Cortaca Jug game was just the fifth rushing score given up all year by the Red Dragons. He was named to the Empire 8 Presidents’ List following the fall semester.

He ran for a season-high 189 yards in the win at Hartwick and scored two touchdowns, including a 79-yard score on Ithaca’s first play from scrimmage. He rushed for 101 yards in the shutout of Utica and caught his first career touchdown pass. Donovan rushed for a pair of scores against Norwich.

He was named Empire 8 and ECAC Rookie of the Year and was a second-team Empire 8 all-star.
