Union senior forwards Mario Valery-Trabucco and Jason Walters have
been nominated for consideration to participate in the 2010 Frozen
Four Skill Challenge, which will take place during the NCAA Frozen
Four Weekend at Ford Field in Detroit.
To help determine the final 32 student-athletes who will
participate in the skills challenge, the NCAA will incorporate a
fan-voting element. Union fans can cast their votes for Trabucco,
Walters until Feb. 15 at NCAA.com/FrozenFour. While the fan voting will
aid in the selection process, the ultimate decisions will be made
by the selection committee by the end of Feb. The final rosters
will include male and female alternates.
Walters is making the most out of his senior season with a
team-best 13 goals and team-high tying 28 points. His 15 assists
and four power-play goals are tied for the team lead. No Union
student-athlete had ever enjoyed a run like the one Walters had
this season. The Renfrew, Ontario native produced a 15-game scoring
streak (Nov. 14 - Jan. 30), producing 11 goals and 12 assists
during the span. He was a plus-11 with three power-play goals and
two game-winners during the stretch and was cashing in on 19.3
percent of his shots.
In his 25 games Valery-Trabucco has registered 12 goals, 16
assists and 28 points. He leads the team for assists, tied for
first for points and is second for goals. His plus-16 rating ranks
second, while his 104 shots are first. This season, Trabucco has
registered a team-high nine multi-point games, including three
games with three points.
