ROCHESTER, N.Y. – Senior captain Ryan Nick of the Army West Point hockey team has been named the Individual Sportsmanship Award winner, announced at the Atlantic Hockey Championship Banquet Thursday night.
"Ryan is very deserving of this award," said head coach Brian Riley. "Having taken just two penalties this season is quite an accomplishment considering how hard Ryan plays the game. When you think about it, he plays the game the right way, which is a testament to his character. He competes extremely hard every shift and is respected by the league's coaches and officials because of his sportsmanship.
