The NCHA men’s conference has announced the 2020-21 season award winners, as well as the all-conference team and all-freshman team.<\/p>\n

The 2020-21 player of the year is Adrian sophomore Alessio Luciani, who led the league in points during the shortened eight-game conference season, recording 17 on five goals and a league-high 12 assists.<\/p>\n

Luciani also led the league in overall scoring by nine points, finishing with 36 (14 goals, 22 assists) in the 23 games Adrian played this winter.<\/p>\n

The league coaches also voted for freshman of the year, resulting in a tie between Adrian\u2019s Jaden Shields and St. Scholastica’s Arkhip Ledenkov.<\/p>\n

Shields played a big role in the AC defense leading the league with a 1.25 goals-against average and also tops in penalty kill at 97.1 percent. He finished tied for 14th in scoring overall with eight points (two goals, six assists), a number that placed second among defensemen and fourth among freshmen.<\/p>\n

Ledenkov burst on the scene and finished fifth in the league in scoring with 11 points (eight goals, three assists), second in goals, and first in power-play goals. His point total finished second among freshmen.<\/p>\n

The 2020-21 coach of the year is Adrian\u2019s Adam Krug, who led the Bulldogs to an unblemished 8-0-0 league ledger, earning the Peters Cup for the second consecutive winter. The team finished 16-6-1 overall and led the NCHA in scoring offense (5.75 GPG) and scoring defense (1.25 GPG) by wide margins.<\/p>\n
