Four assistant captains named for men’s hockey

September 04, 2017 | Men's Hockey

The group joins senior captain Cameron Hughes in leadership group

MADISON, Wis. – Wisconsin men's hockey's formal leadership group now includes five members as a quartet of Badgers join senior captain Cameron Hughes in the select club.

Joining Hughes are senior forward Ryan Wagner and senior defenseman Jake Linhart, as well as junior forward Seamus Malone and sophomore forward Trent Frederic.

The five-member leadership crew is the largest in program history, not counting the three seasons during which the Badgers have rotated and had game captains.

UW has had combinations of four captains and assistant captains on six prior occasions, including most recently during the 2012-13 season when captain John Ramage had assistant help from Ryan Little, Derek Lee and Frankie Simonelli.

Other than Hughes, who served as one of UW's two alternate captains last season, the remaining four Badgers will wear a letter on their jersey's for the first time in their UW careers.
