Professional career
Hubbard represented Team USA in the 1998 World Lacrosse Championship.[1] Hubbard also played in the National Lacrosse League for the Baltimore Thunder (1999), Pittsburgh CrosseFire (2000) and Washington Power (2001).[32] In 1999, he was named NLL Rookie of the Year.[33] In the 1999 World Cup, Hubbard scored a goal to give Team USA and 8–7 lead over Team Canada in a 20–10 victory to sweep the event.[34]
Hubbard was a member of the New Jersey Pride from 2001 until 2007.[35][36] Prior to the 2008 MLL season, Hubbard was traded to the Los Angeles Riptide in exchange for a first round 2009 MLL Collegiate Draft pick.[37] Hubbard played for the Los Angeles Riptide during the 2008 season.[35] After the 2008 season, Hubbard was assigned to the Washington Bayhawks (now Chesapeake Bayhawks). Prior to the start of the 2009 season with the Bayhawks, Hubbard suffered a herniated disc and was unable to play the 2009 season.[38] Hubbard has not played in the MLL since.
In 2000, the MLL organized a Major League Lacrosse Summer Showcase, which was a seven-game promotional series to introduce the first outdoor professional lacrosse league set to begin play the following year. Hubbard was one of the 40 players selected to promote the league.[39] When the MLL began its first season in 2001, Hubbard was instrumental in marketing the league looking to showcase premium talent.[40][41] Hubbard led the MLL in scoring each season from 2001 to 2003,[42][43][44] and was named to the MLL All-Star Team 2001, 2002, 2003, 2005, 2006.[45] In the 2002 All-Star game he scored a goal to break a 16–16 tie in a 21–16 victory for the National Division All-Stars over the American Division All-Stars.[46] When he surpassed his 2001 total of 44 goals with 54 at the end of the 2002 season, it established a league single-season goals record that continues to survive through the 2010 MLL season and his 2003 season total of 50 goals continues to be the only other 50-goal season in league history.[47] The MLL schedule was reduced from 14 games to 12 in 2003, meaning that Hubbard's 50 goals is the record for a 12-game season. The closest anyone has come to his single-season goal scoring record was John Grant's 47-goal 2008 season.[47] As a result of having been the goals scored leader for the MLL's first three-season, he built up a career goals scored lead that stood up until during the 2005 season when Mark Millon took a 206–193 lead in career goals scored.[48] However, Millon only scored five goals in 2007 when his career came to an end.[48] In July 2008, Hubbard surpassed Millon's career total of 239 by reaching 247.[35][49] On August 1, 2010, Tim Goettelmann surpassed Hubbard with his 246th, 247th and 248th career goals.[50] In August 2010, Hubbard was selected to the MLL 10th anniversary team.[51]
