During his final year, Chapman was named as a First Team All-American, the first Spartan to achieve first team honours since 1970. Chapman was also a 2014 MAC Hermann Trophy semifinalist,[1] and Big Ten Midfielder of the Year.[2] In 2012, he signed with SC Toronto of the Canadian Soccer League, and made his debut on May 11, 2012, in a match against St. Catharines Wolves, and recorded his first goal for the club in a 5–0 victory.[3][4]

In 2013, Chapman made 14 appearances and scored three goals for K-W United in the PDL.[5]
