Lawrence University standout Jameson Raymond has been named the Midwest Collegiate Hockey Association Defensive Player of the Week.
Raymond (Flint, Mich./Kearsley) won the honor after Lawrence’s sweep of a weekend series at Finlandia University. Raymond scored two goals, including the game-winner, in Lawrence’s 5-3 victory over the Lions this past Friday. Raymond was a plus-4 on the weekend, which included a 3-2 win over Finlandia on Saturday.
Raymond scored midway through the first period on Friday to stake Lawrence to a 2-0 lead and then scored just 42 seconds into the third period to put the Vikings up 4-0. Both of his goals came on the power play.
Raymond has four goals five assists on the season.
This is the third time in his career that Raymond has won a MCHA weekly award. He was the Freshman of the Week and the Defensive Player of the Week during the 2008-09 season.
Lawrence returns to action this weekend when it hosts Adrian College on Friday and Saturday.
