The Big Ten announced Tuesday the All-Big Ten teams and individual award winners as selected by the conference’s coaches and a media panel.
Wisconsin’s Cole Caufield was named the unanimous Big Ten player of the year, while also earning scoring champion honors with 43 points in 24 conference games.
Minnesota’s Jack LaFontaine was named the goaltender of the year, while Michigan’s Cam York was tabbed the defensive player of the year, which is awarded to a defenseman or forward.
The Wolverines’ Thomas Bordeleau collected freshman of the year laurels, while Wisconsin’s Tony Granato was selected as the coach of the year.
The Big Ten also recognized seven Sportsmanship Award honorees. The students chosen are individuals who have distinguished themselves through sportsmanship and ethical behavior. These students must also be in good academic standing and have demonstrated good citizenship outside of the sports-competition setting.
