CCHA PLAYER-OF-THE-WEEK: University of Michigan senior center Don Stone
has been named CCHA Player-of-the-Week for the weekend of December 7-8.
Stone, a 5-11, 185 lb. native of Utica, Michigan, had six points (three goals,
three assists) in the Wolverines home-and-home sweep of Western Michigan. In
Friday's 6-2 Michigan win in Kalamazoo, Stone recorded three assists including
Cam Stewart's game-winner that gave 'M' a 3-2 lead. Stone scored three goals,
including the game-winner in Saturday's 7-4 victory in Ann Arbor. His first
goal snapped a 1-1 deadlock, while his second goal made it 5-1. He completed
his hat trick with :36 seconds remaining to complete the scoring.
Stone has two hat tricks to lead Michigan. For the year, he has nine goals
and 12 assists for 21 points. This is the first time in his collegiate career
Stone has been named CCHA Player-Of-The-Week.
ANN ARBOR--CCHA Commissioner Bill Beagan announced today that the CCHA has
entered into an affiliation with the University of Michigan Masters of
Business Administration (MBA) graduate student program to assist in the
marketing of the CCHA.
Commissioner Beagan invited a delegation from the University of Michigan MBA
graduate student program to meet with him on Friday, December 7th. It is
expected that up to eight graduate students will be involved in this exercise
which Commissioner Beagan characterized as an effort to glean marketing
expertise from some of the brightest young business minds in the country.
Commissioner Beagan added that the thrust of the MBA Graduate Assistants
involvement will be to increase attendance at on-campus playoffs; further
expand the syndication of the CCHA Game-of-the-Week; and increase the profile
of the CCHA and Division I College Hockey throughout the U.S.A.
