ELMIRA, N.Y. – The Empire 8 Conference announced its weekly award winners on Monday, with Brody Haynes ’26 earning Goaltender of the Week accolades for Men’s Ice Hockey.
The junior made his fourth and fifth consecutive starts of the season on Friday and Saturday for the Soaring Eagles and two more wins, bringing his season total to four. Haynes stopped 33 shots in a 3-2 win on Friday, including 18 in the second period. The next day, he turned in another incredible 30-save gem, with the only blemish coming late in the third period during a 5-1 win for the Soaring Eagles.
The Soaring Eagles have won every game that Haynes has started this year and are riding a four-game win streak with the York, Pa native in the crease.
The Empire 8 also recognized Jakob Breault from Utica as the Player of the Week.
