Dutchmen sweep league honors

by Ryan Fay

It was all Union in this week's ECAC Hockey men's awards.

Senior blueliner Mat Bodie was named Player of the Week, junior Colin Stevens earned Goaltender of the Week and freshman netminder Alex Sakellaropoulos captured Rookie of the Week.

Bodie garnered first star honors in Friday's 4-1 win at top-ranked St. Cloud State after recording a goal and two assists.

Stevens, a Niskayuna native, earned Goaltender of the Week honors for the second consecutive week. He registered a career-high 37 saves in Wednesday's 3-2 win over Dartmouth at Messa Rink. He was nearly as good in Saturday's 3-3 tie at St. Cloud State, collecting 35 saves.

Sakellaropoulos posted a career-high 34 saves on Friday in his first start since a 2-2 tie at UConn on October 25. He earned third star honors after Friday's contest.

#6/7 Union (12-3-3) is off until an ECAC Hockey matchup at #8/8 Quinnipiac on January 10.
