HOCKEY: Redmond And Nagle Saluted For First-Half Efforts By Inside College Hockey

Ferris State University is off to a solid start this season in college hockey and the team's efforts are being recognized on a national level.

A pair of Bulldog standout skaters, goaltender Pat Nagle and defenseman Zach Redmond, earned spots on writer James V. Dowd's Inside College Hockey's mid-season All-Central Collegiate Hockey Association team:

G–Pat Nagle, Ferris State: Nagle (pictured top) has been the best in a league filled with strong, veteran goaltenders. The senior leads the CCHA in save percentage and is second in goals against average.

D–Torey Krug, Michigan State: The Spartans are struggling to score goals, but where would they be without Krug? The sophomore captain has a 5-10—15 line in 18 games, and that’s from the back end.

D–Zach Redmond, Ferris State: The senior (pictured bottom) has been one of the league’s steadiest blueliners over the past few seasons, and this year is no different. Redmond has 12 points and a plus-3 rating.

F–Carter Camper, Miami: Camper is blowing away just about everyone except for teammate Andy Miele in the conference scoring race; he’s currently the nation’s top scorer.

F–Carl Hagelin, Michigan: Hagelin remains one of the CCHA’s elite forwards. He’s unquestionably one of the leaders on a strong Michigan team and plays a great all-around game.

F–Sergio Somma, Ohio State: Somma leads the CCHA with five power-play goals, and his 10-8—18 line puts him on pace for his best season ever. With coach Mark Osiecki trying to install a new system and attitude, Somma has kept the offense on track.

Redmond had an injury issue during a portion of the season's first half, but he has bounced back and been strong when he has been on the ice. Nagle has been healthy and solid all season.
