Jarred Smith '12 was named the ECAC Hockey rookie of the week after he scored his first two career goals in games last Friday and Saturday. Smith scored what proved to be the game-winning goal in Brown's (2-13-4, 2-8-3 ECAC) 4-1 defeat of Colgate (6-13-5, 1-8-3) on Friday night. The following night, Smith scored the Bears' lone goal in a 5-1 loss to No. 3 Cornell (14-2-3, 9-1-2). Smith's weekend brought his season totals to two goals and two assists.

For his outstanding play, Jarred Smith is this week's Herald Athlete of the Week.

Herald: When did you begin playing hockey and why?

Smith: I started when I was about three years old, and I started playing pretty much because my brother played. So I just followed whatever he did.
