Nine players whose seasons extended to the NCAA Division I Mens Ice Hockey Frozen Four in Milwaukee, WI, this weekend have
been honored as RBK ALL-AMERICANS for 2005-06. Leading the way is Boston College, with three East First Team Selections and
one on the Second Team. The University of Wisconsin has three honorees and the University of Maine has two. The only NCAA
semifinalist not represented is the University of North Dakota.
Noteworthy among the selections:
The only players who repeated as First Team selections from 2005 were Denver defenseman Matt Carle and Colorado College
forward Brett Stirling.
Two honorees were Second Team choices last year: First Team defenseman Andy Greene of Miami and repeat Second Team
defenseman Brian Yandle of New Hampshire.
Half of the 24 selections are seniors; nine are juniors and three are sophomores.
The honorees hail from 11 states and four Canadian provinces. The leading sources are Massachusetts and Minnesota, each with
four native sons.
The RBK ALL-AMERICAN ICE HOCKEY TEAMS are sponsored by RBK HOCKEY, an international leader in hockey equipment,
and chosen by members of the AMERICAN HOCKEY COACHES ASSOCIATION.
