APPLETON, Wis. -- Lawrence University's Matt Jacobs has been named the Midwest Collegiate Hockey Association Freshman of the Week.
Jacobs, a forward from East Northport, N.Y., earned the honor after scoring a goal and handing out three assists in Lawrence's weekend series with conference rival Marian.
In last Friday's 4-3 loss, Jacobs scored Lawrence's first goal and was plus-2 on the evening. The former standout at Northport High School then assisted on Lawrence's first three goals in Saturday's 4-4 overtime tie with the Sabres.
Jacobs, who played junior hockey for the New England Huskies before attending Lawrence, has six goals and eight assists for 14 points this season.
Lawrence returns to action Friday when it hosts a two-game series with the University of Minnesota-Crookston.
