The inaugural Hystyk ECRHA Division I/III All Star Game can be considered a microcosm of the entire season up to date. Dominating the rosters are players from RIT, Towson, Buffalo, and Suffolk, with each having four players selected to the game.
 
Division III?s national leader in goals and points, John Lechmanski, is one of four Suffolk players voted in to represent his team. Among the Division I selections are the league?s leading goal scorer Andrew Brodsky (Rutgers) and the league?s leader in assists, Anthony Tsigourakos (Rutgers). Mike Burke, Division 1?s leader in save percentage and goals against average, will be representing Towson University at the event.
 
Division I?s leader in wins, Matt Pokoj (Rutgers) and shutouts, Brett Campbell (RIT) are the two goaltenders selected to start the game. Averaging over four points per game, forward Gene Gsell (Towson), was an overwhelmingly unanimous choice as a starter. Buffalo?s prolific sniper Ryan Perkins, who was Division I?s leading scorer last year, also earned his spot as a starter this year.
 
The White Team will be lead by Kevin Murphy, the head coach of the DI defending champions Towson Tigers. Joining Murphy will be Keith Krem, the head coach of the Northern Conference leading RIT Tigers, and ECRHA coaching legend, Maryland?s own Matthew Rosenthal. Accompanying Gene Gsell in the white team?s starting lineup will be a trio of captains: RIT?s John Nowak, Maryland?s Eddie Dingels, and Towson?s Jim Tamburino.
 
The All Star Red Team will be lead by Dominick Roca, the coach of the Central Conference leading Rutgers Scarlet Knights, and Ken Baldwin, the coach of DIII powerhouse Suffolk. Two of Suffolk?s most dangerous snipers, John Lechmanski and Sean Masem, will start for the red team. They will be joined by Buffalo?s Ryan Perkins and Jay Slutsky.
 
The game will begin at 7:00 PM on rink 2 at the Sportsplex in Feasteville, PA. Hystyk?s ECRHA Division I/III All Star Game will showcase some of the nation?s most talented collegiate roller hockey players in what undoubtedly will be a great battle between these great snipers and amazing goaltenders.
