D3 All-Americans Watch

Re: D3 All-Americans Watch

there is also the theory that the player makes the other players around him better as well,Hulshof linemates seem to be killing it as well, not sure about viva Zappia,anyway both look to be deserving of it.

Re: D3 All-Americans Watch

Hulshof is on a line with Mike Montagna and Mitchell Herlihey and is on a PP unit featuring Alex Botten, Matt Galati, Bobby Gertsakis and take your pick on the 4th forward. Zappia has none of that talent around him. Most of his goals are probably similar to the ones he scored against Oswego, find the puck on a scramble after he led the rush up the ice and put it in.

My Money is on Zappia getting it, he doesn't have the talent next to him that Hulshof has

Real close right now...

Name: Goals-Assists-Points

Hulshof: 12-14-26
Zappia: 11-13-24


Hulshof is tied for the league lead in Power Play Goals and Game Winning Goals. That could be the difference for some voters.

But as you say, Zappia has much less talent around him and he is also a Senior, while Hulshof is a Sophomore (which shouldn't matter, but humans will be humans).

I think my money is on Zappia right now also. Hulshof needs to have a big end to the season and Oswego needs to win the Regular Season crown for him to have a shot, IMO.

I think right now Zappia and Hulshof are one-two in the SUNYAC POY race. With 2 weekends left, a lot could change though.

Re: D3 All-Americans Watch

I hope the fact that Zappia is on Cortland doesn't diminish the awards he gets this post season. He should be in the running for SUNYAC player of the Year and the Sid Watson Award because he is putting up amazing numbers on a garbage team.
