Twenty men’s Division I players who excel both on and off the ice were selected as candidates Wednesday for the 2014-15 Senior CLASS Award.<\/p>\n

To be eligible for the award, a nominee must be classified as an NCAA Division I senior and have notable achievements in four areas of excellence – community, classroom, character and competition.<\/p>\n

An acronym for Celebrating Loyalty and Achievement for Staying in School, the Senior CLASS Award focuses on the total student-athlete and encourages students to use their platform in athletics to make a positive impact as leaders in their communities.<\/p>\n

The 20 candidates (below) will be narrowed to 10 finalists later in the season and those 10 names will be placed on the official ballot.<\/p>\n

The winner will be announced during the Frozen Four in April. The 2014 winner was Rensselaer forward Brock Higgs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\t\n\n\t\n\t\n\t\n\t\n\t\n\t\n\t\n\t\n\t\n\t\n\t\n\t\n\t\n\t\n\t\n\t\n\t\n\t\n\t\n\t
