All-Americans Watch 2013

PrezdeJohnson09

Proud supporter of Osmirwich hockey
As I like to do every year once the calendar turns to February...here are my current projections on who will be named All-American later this year at the FF banquet in March.

I'll update these every week based on the previous week's results and I'll only do the East Region since I've seen very few of the West teams play.

1st Team East:

F. Paul Rodrigues, Oswego
F. Louie Educate, Utica
F. Colin Mulvey, Norwich
D. Zach Josepher, Oswego
D. Rob Florentino, UMass-Boston
G. Nick Broadwater, Hobart

2nd Team East:

F. Luke Moodie, Oswego
F. Keith Beuhler, Wesleyan
F. Frank Salituro, Hobart
D. Shawn Jameson, Wentworth
D. Scott Farrell, Neumann
G. Andrew Hare, Oswego

3rd Team East:

F. Branden Parkhouse, Becker
F. Harry Matheson, Bowdoin
F. Travis Janke, Norwich
D. Tim McGarry, Bowdoin
D. Anton Racklin, Manhattanville
G. Nathan Corey, Amherst
 
Re: All-Americans Watch 2013

Honestly Prez I feel Jesse McConney would be a better choice than Zach Josepher for AA from Oswego. Jesse does make some more egregious mistakes but he also is the best passer the Laker's have and when he is off his game the whole team suffers. And I am not exactly sold on Hare as an AA either, I know his numbers are great and he has made a few really great saves but he has also let in some really brutal goals that have really changed the course of some games. I don't know who I would but in his place, maybe Nick Therrien from Utica. Other than that those would pretty much be my picks as well.
 
Re: All-Americans Watch 2013

Anyone want to start speculating on Coach of the Year??

Matt Loen - UW-EC
Gary Heenan - Utica

Anyone else on the Coaches under Consideration List?

I suppose Terry Meagher deserves some thought, but this really seems to me like it should be Loen's running away.

Damian DiGiulian has St. Mikes as the LEAST penalized team this year!! Quite an improvement and turnaround.

There is NO WAY in the world Oswego gets 4 guys on All-American team. Moodie and Rodrigues and possibly McConney.
 
Re: All-Americans Watch 2013

I have watch several Oswego games this yr a few at the CC and a bunch on the computer,Josepher was on fire at the start of the yr...that said from what I have seen in the past few weeks not so much,offensive production down bigtime, and I have seen him get beat like a rented mule a few times in the pas t few weeks,just saying,maybe 2nd team SUNYAC?? ps not bashing just what I have seen, and I am sure when the chips are down and the pressure is on,NOW, he will step up his game, and we at Oz need him back to the start of the season form
 
Re: All-Americans Watch 2013

Having watched 6-8 of the Lakers games this year they shouldn't get 4 AA's. Rodrigues and Moodie are interchangeable. Hare should not even be a thought and I would put the Card's Cadieux in for Goalie along with the Cards' Docking. McConney is a nice thought for 3rd AA team. The one player who should get some thought is Jon Whitelaw but he won't for he missed about 6-8 games in the first half of the year. IFthe Lakers get 1 player to AA status I would be happy for there are just to many really good players out there.
Oswego 88

F. Frank Salituro, Hobart
D. Scott Farrell, Neumann
D. Ryan Michel, Hobart
G. Benjamin Coultard, Trinity
 
Re: All-Americans Watch 2013

I don't know if anyone has seen him play? What about the points leader in Joe Caveney, Fitchburg State. I would think he would have to get some consideration just with his crazy stats?
 
Re: All-Americans Watch 2013

D. Tim McGarry, Bowdoin
IMO extremely deserving of recognition. I have been fortunate to have seen him play at least 50 games ( I have a senior student), and he is the backbone of that team defensively. Undoubtedly the strongest pound for pound defenseman in the league, and possibly the strongest regardless of size.
He got in the lineup the very first game his freshman year and has barely missed a game. He does not score a ton of points however he did have 10-9-19 last season, and has 3-12-15 this season. He also holds the most pen in a season for Bowdoin all time (77), in 2010-2011 the season they won won the league playoffs which broke a previous record from 1978. He also holds record for most pen in a career (232) and counting, breaking 2 time 1st team All-American Kyle Shearer-Hardy s mark of 212. He will be playing in his 98th game tonight vs Trinity at Brooks School in North Andover. Treat yourself to seeing one of the best defensemen, best leaders in D3 hockey. And FWIW, there is a boy that attends the home games, and watches from right next to the bench so he can hi 5 all the players as they get to the bench, that has MS, and he also wears #28.

You may also see a two great goalies, and possible AA candidates.

I haven't seem him play this year, but now that I think about the name a little more, Joe transfered to Fitchburg mid-semester last year from Division I UMass-Lowell and he played in the Northfield Savings Bank Holiday Tournament. He was certainly a gifted player for the D-III level and I guess you could certainly knock Parkhouse from Becker or really anyone of the 3rd team forwards out and insert Caveney into that slot.

Not sure why taking the most penalties is a reason to be considered for AA.......
 
Re: All-Americans Watch 2013

There are just not enough players selected. In the 79 DIII teams there must be more than 2,000 rostered players.
To only select 18 is less than 1%. Have they ever considered more. Like 6 forwards, 4 defenseman, 2 goalies
per 1st, 2nd, 3rd team in the East and 1st, 2nd teams in the West.

Just seems that a lot of great players are left out, especially if you don't play for one of the final 4 teams.
 
Re: All-Americans Watch 2013

I'm not sure either but Kyle had 212 minutes and was still AA 1st team twice, so it must not be a detriment

He also had over twice as many points.......

Not saying PIM's are a huge detriment, but touting winning the all time PIM title is not likely to win many people over. What is his +/-?

IIRC, they only pick from the All Conference teams (1st team only??), so the pool is thinned quite a bit before we get to the All American picks.
