Young's next season was saved as new head coach Baker Dunleavy inserted Young into the starting lineup. Young responded, averaging 18.8 points a game for the Bobcats and earning second-team All-Metro Atlantic Athletic Conference (MAAC) honors.^[2] Following his fifth year of eligibility being reinstated, Young entered the 2018–19 season as the leading returning scorer in the MAAC and a preseason first-team All-MAAC selection.^[4] In a February 18, 2019 game, Young scored 55 points against Siena. The total marked a MAAC and Quinnipiac Division I record and was the most points scored in an NCAA Division I game since North Dakota State’s Ben Woodside scored 60 in 2008.^[5] Young led the Bobcats to an 11–7 MAAC record and at the close of the season was named the MAAC Player of the Year and a first-team All-MAAC pick.^[6][7]
