Stavroff named hockey All-American

Dartmouth sophomore forward Hayden Stavroff was named a first-team All-American by the American Hockey Coaches Association on Friday, capping a historic individual season.

Stavroff led the country in goals with 29 in 35 games and ranked first nationally in goals per game (0.83). The Columbus, Ohio, native recorded 13 multi-point games, including two hat tricks, and finished sixth nationally in points per game (1.37). He added 19 assists for 48 points on the season.

The honors continued a remarkable March for Stavroff, who was named Ivy League Player of the Year, ECAC Hockey Player of the Year (the first Dartmouth player to win that award), a top-10 Hobey Baker Award finalist, and the winner of the Walter Brown Award, also a first for a Big Green player. He was also named a New England All-Star by the New England Writers Association this week.

Stavroff is the first Dartmouth player named All-American since David Jones earned first-team honors in 2007. In 66 career games, he has 39 goals and 31 assists.

The award closes out a program-record season for Dartmouth, which won 23 games, claimed its first ECAC Hockey Tournament championship and returned to the NCAA Tournament for the first time since 1980.
