MAC Offensive Player of the Week
Phil Erickson (Wilkes / Fr., F / Eau Claire, Wis.) helped Wilkes to a 2-0 week as the freshman notched three third period goals in two come-from-behind victories. Erickson provided the shorthanded goal at the 11:07 mark of the third period and then added a late insurance goal to give the Colonels a 5-3 win over MAC/UCHC foe Manhattanville Friday to give Wilkes control of the MAC standings. Erickson then cut a 4-2 deficit after two-and-a-half periods with a shorthanded goal 6:28 into the third to spark the Colonels’ 5-4 overtime victory over UCHC foe Neumann on Saturday. The freshman was a plus-three rating for the week.
