Fensore to lead 2022-23 Terriers, also named team MVP

Rising senior Domenick Fensore was named captain of the 2022-23 Terriers at a somewhat subdued team banquet this past Saturday. The left-shot defenseman from Thornwood, N.Y., led BU in scoring (31 points) this past season, earning the Ed Carpenter Award for most points as well as the George V. Brown Most Valuable Player Award. In addition, Fensore shares the Clifford P. Fitzgerald Scholarship Award (outstanding junior or senior defenseman) with Alex Vlasic, who recently made his NHL debut with the Blackhawks.

Fensore will be joined in the Terrier leadership group by fellow rising seniors Case McCarthy and Jay O'Brien. McCarthy, who was named Hockey East Defender of the Month for November, had a career-best 14 points this season. O'Brien also set new career marks with 10 goals and 12 assists. 

Other team award winners were:

● Most Improved Player--Sam Stevens 

● Bennett McInnis Award for Spirit--Logan Cockerill

● Friends/Albert Sidd Unsunge Hero--Ty Amonte

● Regina Eilberg Scholarship Award--Cade Webber
