He made his MLS debut with a start in the season opener against Los Angeles Galaxy on March 27. In his home debut against Toronto FC on April 10, he netted a hat trick, becoming the first rookie in MLS history to register a hat trick in his home debut and just the third rookie in MLS history to net a hat trick. He scored the Revs’ lone goal in a 1-1 tie with FC Dallas on May 1 and scored the game-winner in 3-2 win over New York to help snap a seven-game winless streak on May 29.

He came on as a 70th-minute substitute in the final against Morelia on September 1 and recorded his first professional assist on Kevin Alston’s 79th-minute goal.
Schilawski was waived by New England on March 5, 2012. Following his release, Schilawski trialled with Chicago Fire, but wasn't signed by the club.
