Neumeier Earns ECAC Defender of the Week
CLIFTON PARK, N.Y. — Michael Neumeier was named ECAC Hockey Defender of the Week, announced Monday by the conference.
Neumeier found the back of the net in both of Colgate's wins over LIU and went +3, helping the Raiders sweep the Sharks this past weekend.
On Friday, Neumeier scored Colgate's first goal of the contest just over three and a half minutes into the second, putting his team up 1-0. He finished a shot from right in front following tic-tac-toe passes. Neumeier also blocked two shots during the game.
The first-year got the Raiders on the board first again Saturday. He received a pass then skated across the ice and fired a shot from above the left faceoff circle with 30 seconds remaining in the first.
Neumeier has scored in three straight games and is riding a four-game point streak. He has gone +3 during the streak and blocked five shots.
This marks the first time in his career that the Kerrobert, Saskatchewan, native has earned a weekly award from the league.
