Collegiate career
Peyser won two national championships while playing with the Johns Hopkins Blue Jays. As a freshman, he played in all sixteen games and helped the Blue Jays win the 2005 NCAA Division I Men's Lacrosse Championship. In 2006, Peyser missed a significant part of the season due to a broken jaw suffered prior to the season. In his junior season he was awarded USILA third team All-American honors, and again helped his team win the national championship. Peyser was named to the 2007 NCAA Division I Men's Lacrosse Championship All-tournament team for his efforts in the tournament. As a senior, Peyser and the Blue Jays were again in the national championship game; however, this time they were defeated by the Syracuse Orange.
As collegiate lacrosse has developed more specialists, Peyser's abilities as both a face-off man and offensive and defensive midfielder contributed to the Blue Jays success during his collegiate career.
