Grant earns monthly honor
By Alex DiFilippo (Last updated: 11/03/09 7:20pm)MSU freshman forward Derek Grant was named the CCHA Rookie of the Month on Tuesday.
The Abbotsford, British Columbia, native is tied for first in the nation among rookie scoring with 10 points (four goals, six assists).
Grant’s scoring line puts him in second place in the CCHA, behind only his linemate, junior forward Corey Tropp.
The 6-foot-3, 185-pound left-winger began the season on a six-game point streak and was named the CCHA Rookie of the Week for Oct. 12 after the Spartans swept Clarkson in the team’s first series.
In the road split with No. 1 Miami (Ohio), Grant recorded goals in both games for the Spartans.
