The awards honor the month&#8217;s top men&#8217;s college player in NCAA Division I and is selected by the Ice Hockey Collegiate Commissioners&#8217; Association (IHCCA).<\/p>\n<p>LeNeveu, a 6-1, 170-pound sophomore, won the Player of the Month Award with a 7-0-1 record, 1.25 goals against average and .947 save percentage in February, as Cornell climbed to No. 2 in the national rankings and claimed its second-straight ECAC regular-season title. The Big Red netminder has led Cornell to the nation&#8217;s longest active unbeaten streak (nine games, 8-0-1) heading into the postseason.<\/p>\n<p>The highlight of the month came on Feb. 21 when LeNeveu recorded his sixth shutout of the season, tying a school record set by legendary Montreal Canadiens goaltender Ken Dryden, in a 5-0 blanking of Rensselaer. LeNeveu has since broken the school record in a 3-0 win this past Saturday over Yale, making a season-high 31 saves. Yale came into the game with the nation&#8217;s fourth highest-scoring offense.<\/p>\n<p>His seven shutouts lead all Division I goaltenders, as does his 1.16 goals against average, .943 save percentage, and .900 winning percentage. LeNeveu&#8217;s goals against average is almost a whole goal lower than that of the next lowest average (2.12).<\/p>\n<p>Sterling collected eight goals and 10 points in six games during February. He scored four goals in a 6-2 home-ice victory over defending national champion Minnesota on Feb. 7. In a two-game series at St. Cloud State a week later, he collected three more three goals and a pair of assists. Sterling earned WCHA Offensive Player of the Week honors after both weekends.<\/p>\n<p>With 32 points (22g,10a) for the season, Sterling ranks fourth in the nation among all rookies. He has scored the game-winning goal in CC&#8217;s last three victories, including an 8-1 triumph over MSU-Mankato, on Feb. 28 that clinched the WCHA regular-season championship for the Tigers.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Cornell goaltender David LeNeveu and Colorado College forward Brett Sterling were named winners of the IHCCA Commissioners&#8217; Choice Awards for February.
