For the second straight season, UConn men’s hockey has an All-American. On Friday, Ryan Tverberg was named a CCM/ACHA East Second Team All-American, joining Jonny Evans as the second Husky to earn the honor in the program’s Division I Era (1998-present).
Tverberg had a breakout campaign as a sophomore with a team-high 14 goals to go with 18 assists and 32 points, both of which were second-best on the squad. Early in the year, he carried the offense with a five-game stretch in which he scored in every game and racked up eight points. While Tverberg went 12 games without scoring afterward, he closed the season strong with five goals and nine assists — including a four-point night at UMass on Feb.
