BLOOMINGTON, Minn. – After a career-best performance against Alaska Anchorage, Bowling Green hockey's freshman forward Brandon Kruse has been named Rookie of the Week by the Western Collegiate Hockey Association.
A native of Saline, Mich., Kruse earned four points on the weekend by one goal and three assists against Alaska Anchorage, and comes off the weekend on a two-game point streak. By notching the game-winning goal in addition to a pair of assists, Kruse earned a career-high three-point night on Saturday against the Seawolves. By netting the game-winner with just 6:53 remaining in regulation, Kruse helped lift the Falcons to a 3-2 victory and sweep of the WCHA foe.
