Junior Miguel Arilla earned All-BIG EAST First Team, junior Matthew Reed claimed All-BIG EAST Second Team, while graduate student Omar Ramadan and junior Andrija Savic each earned a spot on the All-BIG EAST Third Team.

Earning All-BIG EAST First Team honors for the first time in his career and his second career All-BIG EAST honors, Arilla closed the season with a team high in goals (6), assists (4), and points (16). Arilla saw action in all 16 matches, starting 12 and playing 825 minutes.
