Nicolazzo Awarded All-Metro Third Team Honors

Junior forward Romero Nicolazzo was named to the All-Metro Third Team as the league announced its regular-season award winners on Tuesday.

Nicolazzo earned All-Metro honors for the first time in his career following a 2026 campaign in which the Beamsville, Ontario, native led the Griffs with eight goals and two assists for 18 points. His 18 points mark the most by a Golden Griffin in a single season since 2017, when Filippo Tamburini recorded 26 points, and Troy Brady added 20.

The junior tallied his first three goals of his campaign in a matchup against St. John Fisher on Sept. 12, scoring three goals in seven minutes for the first natural hat trick of his career. Nicolazzo also potted two goals in a 10-minute span in the Griffs 5-1 win at Merrimack on Oct. 31, also recording an assist for a five-point afternoon.

Nicolazzo recorded his best season in the Blue and Gold in 2026, setting career-highs in goals (8), points (18), and minutes played (926).
