The Big Ten announced Tuesday the All-Big Ten teams and individual award winners as selected by the conference’s coaches and a media panel.
Notre Dame’s Cale Morris was named Big Ten Player and Goaltender of the Year, while Ohio State’s Steve Rohlik was selected as the Coach of the Year. The Fighting Irish will host the Buckeyes in the championship game of the Big Ten Tournament at 8 p.m. ET Saturday on BTN.
Penn State’s Trevor Hamilton was tabbed the Defensive Player of the Year, which is awarded to a defenseman or forward. Michigan State’s Mitchell Lewandowski collected Freshman of the Year laurels in a unanimous vote, while Michigan’s Cooper Marody claimed the scoring title with 27 points in 24 conference games.
The Big Ten also recognized seven Sportsmanship Award honorees. The students chosen are individuals who have distinguished themselves through sportsmanship and ethical behavior. These students must also be in good academic standing and have demonstrated good citizenship outside of the sports-competition setting.
