NOTES
CCHA Playoff champions times two: Lake Superior has won the last two CCHA
playoff titles becoming just the fifth team to win back-to-back playoff crowns.
The others are St. Louis (1974-75-76), Bowling Green (1977-78-79), Northern
Michigan (1980-81) and Michigan State (1982-83-84-85, 1989-90).
Madeley ties another CCHA record: In garnering both wins this past weekend,
LSSU goaltender Darrin Madeley has now won 11 CCHA playoff games tying the
mark set by Norm Foster and Jason Muzzatti (both of Michigan State). Madeley
is the ninth goalie to be selected MVP of the CCHA playoffs.
Michigan hoping to keep CCHA streak alive: The Michigan Wolverines are hoping
the tradition that CCHA teams that win national titles did not win the CCHA
playoffs. In 1984 Bowling Green finished fourth in the CCHA Championships,
and in 1986 Michigan State lost to Western Michigan 3-1 in the CCHA title
game. Lake Superior was defeated by Bowling Green 5-3 in the 1988 CCHA
Championship game. BGSU (Lake Placid), Michigan State (Providence) and Lake
Superior (Lake Placid) all won their national championships in the East.

DWAYNE NORRIS NAMED CCHA PLAYER-OF-THE-YEAR, GWOZDECKY, LONEY HONORED
Michigan State University senior right wing Dwayne Norris has been named CCHA
Player-of-the-Year for the 1991-92 season. Miami University Head Coach George
Gwozdecky was selected Coach-of-the-Year, and Ohio State University freshman
right wing Brian Loney was named Rookie-of-the-Year. The award recipients
were selected by a vote of the league coaches.
Dwayne Norris, the second leading scorer in the CCHA, was a unanimous selection
to the All-CCHA First Team. Norris led the CCHA with 36 goals, 20 power play
goals, and tied OSU's Rob Schriner for the league lead with five shorthanded
markers. A 1990 draft pick of Quebec, Norris tallied 67 points in 37 games
during the regular season including two hat tricks. He becomes just the
second Spartan to win Player-of-the-Year honors (Kip Miller in 1989-90).
George Gwozdecky led Miami University to its highest finish ever in the CCHA
and their second playoff appearance in the last three years. The Redskins
enter the CCHA Championships with a 17-15-6 mark (first winning season since
1982-83 (18-17-1). As a collegiate head coach in six years, Gwozdecky has a
99-98-15 mark. He is the first Miami coach selected CCHA Coach-of-the-Year.
Brian Loney is just the second Ohio State University freshman to be selected
CCHA Rookie-of-the-Year (joining Paul Pooley in 1980-81). Loney led all CCHA
rookies in scoring during the regular season with 20 goals and 31 assists for
51 points, while finishing second on the Buckeye squad in scoring. Loney is
eligible for the 1992 National Hockey League entry draft (born August 9, 1972).
