The immense hard work of Wisconsin Hockey’s recruitment has finally paid off. Freshman forward Cole Caufield is climbing the ladder towards becoming the Badger’s newest shining star.
Caufield led all NCAA freshmen with eight goals in October and also had a seven game stretch during which he scored ten points. On top of this, Caufield led freshmen in goals per game (1.14), power-play goals (three) and shots on goal (31, 4.43 per game).
As of Nov. 8, 2019, the Hockey Commissioners Association officially named Caufield the national rookie of the month.
Having grown up in Stevens Point with a strong hockey bloodline, Caufield was perfectly primed to rise toward the top.
