Alumni Update: Campbell and Lasch listed as candidates for Hobey Baker Award, Walters nominated for Frozen Four Skill Challenge

The Lumber Kings list of proud and succesful alumni is a long one that can be hilighted by the recent success of some familiar names.

Forwards Ryan Lasch, Scott Campbell and Jason Walters all held the distinction of "fan favorites" during their time in Pembroke and not much has changed with their new teams as they continue their success in the NCAA.

All three players are a big part of their respective nationally ranked teams and are enojoying great seasons. Lasch and Campbell were recently named as candidates for the Hobey Baker Award which is awarded anually to NCAA College hockey's top player while Walters was nominated for consideration to participate in the 2010 Frozen Four Skill Challenge, which will take place during the NCAA Frozen Four Weekend at Ford Field in Detroit.

Lasch, a Senior is in his final season with St. Cloud State University and has helped the Huskies climb the National Rankings to Number 4.

Campbell, a Junior with UMASS-Lowell attended the Boston Bruins Development Camp in the summer and hasn't looked back as he has helped put the River Hawks on the map at number 18 in the Nation.

Walters, a Senior with Union College is leading the Dutchmen in scoring and has done his part to help round out the National Rankings as they sit at number 20.
