This season the Pride has seen key stats from first year Luke Shimko, junior Samuel Haverstrom, senior Chris Covington, and senior Austin Angradi. On the offensive side, Shimko and Haverstrom lead the Pride with 27 goals and 11 assists each. The defensive game features the two top caused turnover leaders from Covington and Angradi with 20 and 18 respectively.
