Haite has earned a 3.37 cumulative grade point average as an economics major at Stonehill, with a minor in sport commerce and culture. On the field, Haite is an All-NE10 third team selection as a junior and has been selected to The Fred Mitchell Award Preseason "Watch List" four times over his career. Haite is also active in the community, volunteering his time in his hometown with the Kingston Police Department "Night Out" program, Kingston Recreational Summer Camp, NFL Flag football program and the Silver Lake Youth Basketball Association.

The sport has touched millions on and off the field - shaping our lives and communities.
