Brodhag Named Pro Ambitions Co-Rookie of the Week
NORTH ANDOVER, MA – Forward Brandon Brodhag
(Brooklyn Park, MN) was named the Pro Ambitions Co-Rookie
of the Week on Monday.
Brodhag becomes the third Warrior to earn a weekly honor in as
many weeks, as Stephane Da Costa (Paris, France)
was the conference’s Player of the Week on October 19, while
Karl Stollery (Camrose, AB) was the Pure Hockey
Defensive Player of the Week on October 26.
Brodhag tallied his first career goal and assist on Friday in a
4-3 loss to #12 Boston College. He followed up that performance
with the game-winning goal and an assist in Merrimack’s 5-3
win over the Eagles on Sunday. The line of Brodhag, Da Costa and
Jeff Velleca (Waterbury, CT) combined for 11
points in the two-game set with Boston College.
Merrimack (5-3, 2-1), who is 5-0 at home for the first time since
joining Hockey East, defeated Boston College for the first time in
21 meetings, dating back to 2003.
The Warriors are idle this week before taking on the defending
National Champion Boston University in a home-and-home series
beginning Friday November 13 at Lawler Arena.
