So Long Seniors:
With the loss to Hamline, the Yellowjackets
saw goodbye to four seniors - Logan Isley, Talon Berlando, Matt
Wiest and Jesse Junkermeier.
And Then There Was One: Next year's team will have
just one senior - Toronto native Tom Budziakowski. That's the
smallest senior class since 1997-98 when there was also only one
senior.
Iron Men: This season five players played in all 30
games - Talon Berlando, Tyler Klein, Justin Faryna, Chad Blanleil
and Pat Dalbec.
Top Of The Charts: The top returning scorer for next year's
squad is Justin Faryna, whose 23 goals and 38 points are tops among
all eligible returners.
Like Uncle, Like Nephew: Jesse Junkermeier leaves the
Yellowjackets with 31 career points, the exact same number that his
uncle, Dan Laughlin, accumulated in his career with the
Yellowjackets.
Many Happy Returns: The Yellowjackets will return six of
their top seven scorers, their top two defense pairs and all three
goaltenders to next year's team.
Poll Position: The Yellowjackets came in at #11 in the
final 2010-11 edition of the USCHO Division III men's hockey poll
(seen below). It was their highest ranking of the season.
Look for them to be ranked even higher in next season's pre-season
poll. |
