Multiple Tommies Earn All-Conference Spots

Multiple Tommies Earn All-Conference Spots

After a succesful season which saw the Tommies fall just short of consecutive ACAA titles and a 10-0-2 regular season record, the Tommies had a number of representatives on the All-Conference teams.

Making appearences on the ACAA All-Conference First Team was Brett Springer (Bamberg, ON), Ryan MacKinnon (Fredericton, NB) and Josh Oakes (Kitchener, ON).

Springer was also named a CCAA All-Canadian for the second straight season, finishing second in goals this season with 12. This is also Oakes' second appearence making the All-Conference team, having made the team last season. Oakes played shutdown defense for the Tommies this year as a defensive midfielder and was also able to add a goal. For MacKinnon, it will be his first time, after being named to the All-Conference Second Team last season - the fifth-year centre back scored five times in 10 games.

The Tommies had four of their players named to the All-Conference Second Team, inclduing keeper Luke Ewen (Milton, ON), who only allowed one goal all season long. He led the ACAA in four keeper categories - A 0.13 goals agasint average, one goal against, 0.964 save percentage and seven shutouts all led the ACAA. Ewen made 27 saves on the season - tied for seventh.

STU also had Chidubem Nkoloagu (Burnaby, BC), Gray Cyr (Ottawa, ON) and Elias Stiphout (Leiden, Netherlands) named to the team.

Nkoloagu makes his second appearence on the Second Team, having five goals this season, while Cyr and Stiphout make their first appearences.

Both were vital to the Tommies unbeaten run in their regular season.
