Nick Halloran Selected to NCHC Preseason Team

Colorado College junior forward Nick Halloran was named to the National Collegiate Hockey Conference (NCHC) Preseason All-Conference Team Tuesday morning in advance of the league's Media Day. Twenty-six (26) ballots were submitted by local media members from each school, as well as select national media. 

Juniors make up half of the preseason all-conference squad, while two seniors and a sophomore were also chosen to the team. Halloran and Minnesota Duluth sophomore defenseman Scott Perunovich led all honorees in voting, receiving 24 votes each. Western Michigan junior Wade Allison and St. Cloud State senior Robby Jackson rounded out the forward group, earning 22 and 13 votes, respectively. Fellow SCSU senior Jimmy Schuldt picked up 20 votes to join Perunovich on the blueline. UMD junior goaltender Hunter Shepard completed the team, garnering 21 votes.
 
Last season, Halloran ranked third in the NCHC with 45 points on 19 goals and 26 assists in 37 games, en route to first-team All-NCHC and second-team All-America honors. In conference play, Halloran finished second in scoring with 31 points (13g, 18a) and is the top returning scorer in the NCHC. He is the first Tiger to be selected to the preseason team since current Carolina Hurricanes defenseman Jaccob Slavin prior to the 2014-15 campaign.
 
Media members voted for three forwards, two defensemen and one goaltender on their ballot with each vote worth one point. The top three vote-getters at forward, top two defensemen and highest vote-getting goaltender made up the preseason all-conference team.
