NATIONAL AWARDS CCM ALL-AMERICANS
PATTY KAZMAIER AWARD
HOCKEY HUMANITARIAN
The CCM All-American Teams are selected annually by the American Hockey Coaches Association, they are announced at the end of the season at the Women’s Frozen Four.
Presented annually since 1997-98 to the top player in women’s college ice hockey, the Patty Kazmaier Award was first won by Brandy Fisher of UNH. Below is a list of Hockey East Top 10 finalists, with winners in bold.
Arguably the highest individual honor in the sport of college ice hockey, the Hockey Humanitarian Award bridges any gender gap between the men’s and women’s game as well as any perceived talent gap between divisions. Annually presented to the athlete that best demonstrates the highest qualities of humanity, the award has become a symbol for everything that is right with college athletics, and it is an honor just to be nominated for the award, or to be selected as one of the annual finalists. Winners in bold. !-Finalist Past Nominees 2002-03 Chanda Gunn, NU ! 2003-04 Chanda Gunn, NU 2004-05 Sarah Carlson, BC 2005-06 Janelle Armitage, UConn ! 2007-08 Missy Elumba, NU 2008-09 Missy Elumba, NU 2011-12 Ashley Norum, Maine 2013-14 Danielle Rancourt, UVM !
