HAMDEN, Conn. -- Quinnipiac head coach Rick Seeley has announced the captains for the 2008-09 season. Trudy Reyns (Port Hope, Ontario), Elyse Cole (Belleville, Ontario) and Evelina Husar (Eskilstuna, Sweden) will lead the Bobcats this season.

Senior defender Reyns will wear the “C” for the second consecutive season. Reyns suited up for all 34 games last season and ranked second on the team in points tallying five goals and 11 assists. Senior forward Cole led the team last year in goals with 13 and added seven assists and was named Team MVP and Best Offensive Player in the 2007-08 season. Junior defender Husar dressed for all 34 games as well and had one assist.

“I am proud to introduce our three captains, Trudy Reyns, Elyse Cole and Evelina Husar,” said Seeley. “They give us a great balance, each adding unique leadership qualities to the mix. Having junior Evelina Husar will help make a smooth transition into next year’s leaders. Overall, we are very pleased with how our captains have stepped up.”
