Sophomore David Hallisey has 10 points in 18 games, while Eric Robinson chips in six goals and two helpers for eight points. Junior Ryan Siiro also has eight points. Junior Colton Phinney owns every decision in goal for the Tigers. Phinney boasts a .926 save percentage and a 2.78 goals against average.

The Spink brothers lead the team in scoring with Tyson scored 11 goals and 17 assists for 28 points, while Tylor has five goals and 18 assists for 23 points. Senior Mike Borkowski has scored the most goals, 12 total, and adds five assists for 17 points. Sophomore Mike Panowyk chips in 15 points and senior Darcy Murphy has 14. Junior Charlie Finn has started in all but four games in net. He has a 3.36 GAA and an .895 save percentage.
