DEEPHAVEN -- The Bemidji State men’s hockey team just received its icing on the cake -- twice -- for a five-point weekend at Michigan Tech.

Freshman Lleyton Roed was named the CCHA Rookie of the Week, and sophomore Mattias Sholl was named the CCHA Goaltender of the Week, as announced by the league on Monday.

The award is the first in Roed’s young career, while Scholl’s is his first Goaltender of the Week award.

Roed picked up his first career weekly accolade after scoring three of BSU’s seven goals over the weekend. That tally includes his first two career goals during Friday’s 5-2 win, plus another goal in Saturday’s 2-2 tie.

Scholl went 1-0-1 between the pipes by stopping 40 of 44 shots over the weekend, good for a .909 save percentage and a 1.93 goals against average in 124:40 minutes of play. Sholl also limited the Huskies to a 1-for-5 performance in Saturday’s shootout.

Northern Michigan’s AJ Vanderbeck was named the Forward of the Week, while St. Thomas’ Ethan Gauer was the Defenseman of the Week.
