A total of 15 Canisius College student-athletes were honored for their work off the ice on Thursday, earning Atlantic Hockey All-Academic Team accolades. Freshman Ryan Bohrer highlighted the selections, picking up Academic All-Star honors.

Bohrer was selected to the Academic All-Star Team for owning the top GPA at his position. The freshman forward earned a perfect 4.0 GPA during the 2010-11 season, while recording 12 points, five goals and seven assists in 37 games.

Joining Bohrer on the All-Academic Team include seniors Phil Rauch and Matt Zuke, who each earned the distinction in all four of their seasons at Canisius. Redshirt senior Chris Forsman was also named to the team for the fourth time in his career.

Seniors Cory Conacher and Scott Jenks plus junior Scott Moser all picked up the accolade for the third time, while senior Derek Danowski and sophomores Torrey Lindsay, Ben Parker and Preston Shupe were each named to the all-academic team for a second time.

Five student-athletes were named to the team in their first season with the Griffs, including Bohrer, Ben Danford, Kyle Gibbons, Taylor Law and Jordan Mustard.

To qualify for the Atlantic Hockey All-Academic Team, an individual must post a 3.0 grade point average or higher in each academic semester during the 2010-11 year.
