He helped lead the Terriers to their best season in 20 years including a win in the opening game of the Southern Conference Tournament.

Percic got his first Division I job at the University of Illinois-Chicago in 2019. He spent two years on staff before his stint at Green Bay. In the 2019 season, the Flames finished in second place in the Horizon League regular season which was the highest in team history. The goalkeeping staff ranked in the top-20 in the nation in goals against, save percentage, and shutouts with the help of Percic. Percic led the Flames to qualify for the Horizon League tournament twice including a championship game appearance in his first season.
