This marks the first time multiple Tommies have made the all-conference team

ST. PAUL, Minn. -- The Central Collegiate Hockey Association announced its All-Conference Teams this morning and three Tommies were honored for the first time in program history. Chase Foley received second-team honors while Liam Malmquist and Lucas Wahlin each garnered a spot on the first team. 
 
Chase Foley had a tremendous season with career-bests in nearly every statistical category. He set single season program records during the regular season in assists by a defenseman (17) and points by a defenseman (20). He also quarterbacked the best power play in program history and the best in the CCHA this season (26.5%). Foley finished top three in all offensive categories among conference defensemen. The grad transfer was named November Defenseman of the month earlier in the season. This is Foley's first all-conference honor and the Tommies first all-conference honor for a defenseman. 
 
Wahlin played in 34 games during the regular season and added 16 goals, 19 assists, and 35 points, all were career highs. He finished the season as one of five players in the conference with at least one point per game. His +9 was second on the Tommies to his linemate and fellow first-teamer Liam Malmquist. The St. Thomas captain wrapped up the regular season with 34 goals, 52 assists, and 86 points for his career in a Tommie uniform. All three of those marks lead the program. The Tommie captain was named forward of the week once in January and was named February Forward of the Month. This is Wahlin's second career all-conference honor and first time on the first team. 
 
Malmquist played in 34 games as well during the regular season and added 13 goals, 23 assists, and 36 points. All of those were career highs and his 23 assists and 26 points were single season program records as was his +11 rating. The Edina, Minn. native concluded the regular season with 23 career goals, 41 assists, and 63 points in two full seasons for the Tommies. He was third all-time in assists and points before his six-point weekend in the Mason Cup Quarterfinals. Malmquist was named forward of the week twice in January and was named January Forward of the Month. This is Malmquist's first career all-conference honor.
