PROVIDENCE, R.I. – Freshman
Mathis Lacroix-Goulet (Delson, Québec) earned Little East Conference (LEC) honors as the league announced its weekly award winners on Monday.
Lacroix-Goulet was named LEC Men's Ice Hockey Rookie of the Week after an impressive performance in Saturday's shootout win over Vermont State University Castleton.
Making his collegiate debut, Lacroix-Goulet turned aside 34 shots as PSU skated to a 2-2 tie with the Spartans before earning the extra point in a shootout. He made 12 saves in the third period to help the Panthers erase a deficit, then stopped all five shots he faced in overtime, including two on 1-on-1 breakaways. Lacroix-Goulet also denied both attempts in the shootout to secure the extra point.
Plymouth State (2-1-1, 0-1-1 LEC) travels to UMass Dartmouth on Friday (Nov. 13) for a 5:30 p.m. matchup against the Corsairs.
