The Selkirk College Saints Men’s Hockey program is pleased to announce that first-year centre Logan
Proulx has been named an Honourable Mention for the British Columbia
Intercollegiate Hockey League’s Player of the Week award.
The 21-year old continued his hot start to the 2012/13 BCIHL regular
season on Friday in the Saints‘ home opener, scoring a goal and adding a
pair of assists in his team’s 6-1 victory over Trinity Western
University. He opened the scoring at the 12:00 mark of the first period
on a Selkirk power-play and helped set up another man-advantage tally
less than three minutes later. Then, with the Saints up a pair midway
through the second period, he sent team captain Jordan Wood in alone on
TWU starter Harry Fredeman. Wood made no mistake to extend the home lead
to 4-1 and earn Proulx his third point of the game and first-star
honours.
The Trail, B.C. product leads the Saints in scoring through three
regular season games with six points (two goals, four assists). Those
totals are also good for second in the BCIHL behind Player of the Week
winner Ben Van Lare.
“Logan’s had an excellent start to the season and made big contributions
at both ends of the ice,” says Saints head coach Jeff Dubois. “He’s
formed a productive partnership with his linemates (Wood and former BCHL
50-point winger Jackson Garrett) and been named an assistant captain on
account of his strong leadership skills.”
The Saints return to home ice at the Castlegar Recreation Complex on
Friday in a battle of unbeaten teams when Thompson Rivers University
(Kamloops, B.C.) visits for the first of two weekend games. Faceoff is
set for 7:30 PM.
Tickets for Friday and Saturday’s games will be available at the door
for $8 (Adults) and $5 (Selkirk students & staff, seniors, children 6 &
older) and season passes will also be available. For more information on

SAINTS NOTES: This is the second consecutive week that a Selkirk player
was tabbed as an Honourable Mention for BCIHL Player of the Week.
Defenceman Lucas Hildrebrand was recognized last week after his OT goal
lifted the Saints to a win over the University of Victoria.
