The BCHL’s Smart Hockey slogan has proven true yet again with the release of the ECAC Hockey conference’s all-academic players, which includes those at Ivy League programs.
In all, 51 BCHL graduates were highlighted and several were making the grade for a second, third or fourth time.
Players are eligible for the all-academic team if they earn a cumulative grade point average of at least a 3.00 on a 4.00 scale or have a GPA over 3.00 over the past three semesters.
The following are the BCHL alums at each school that made the ECAC Hockey all-academic team, along with the BCHL team they graduated from. Numbers in parentheses indicate how many times the player has made the conference all-academic list in his NCAA career:
