News of the recruits


2007 recruit Colby Cohen had four assists for Lincoln on Saturday night, bringing his season total to 59 points (13 goals, 46 assists). He has three regular season games left to reach the 60 point mark. Cohen had begun the season with the NTDP U18s but left after 12 games. During that time he tallied one goal and seven assists, the final one coming in the U18s' 5-4 win over the team crowned national champion yesterday, Michigan State.

Colin Wilson and Kevin Shattenkirk and their U18 teammates head for Finland this week to defend Team USA's title in the World U18 championships. Last year's gold-medal winning U.S. squad featured current Terriers Brian Strait and Luke Popko, as well as Wilson who moved up from the U17s to participate. The same path is being taken by Terrier recruiting target Vinny Saponari, who was promoted from the U17s last month and earned a roster spot for the Worlds.

Three future Terriers, 2007 forward Nick Bonino, 2008 forward Andrew Glass and 2008 defenseman David Warsofsky, were named to Team New England for the upcoming ProAm Hockey Pre-draft International Tournament to be played May 11-13 in Walpole.
