CHAD KOLARIK
Michigan

His Statistics: 2 GP, 4-3—7

His Impact: The most impressive aspect of Kolarik's four-goal, three-assist showing in the Wolverines' non-conference wins this past weekend wasn't the sheer number of points or the variety of ways he scored his goals (two on the power play, one shorthanded, two unassisted), but the efficiency with which he did it. He scored on his only shot in Michigan's 8-1 romp over Alabama-Huntsville Friday, then added a hat trick on four shots in a 7-5 win over Connecticut the following night.

His Runners-Up: Luke Erickson, Bemidji State; Marc Fulton, Colgate; Josh Kassel, Army; Matt Niskanen, Minnesota Duluth; Bret Tyler, Maine
