BEMIDJI, Minn. – After helping the Bemidji State University Men's Hockey team to a MacNaughton Cup title and series sweep of Minnesota State University, Mankato, senior Jackson Jutting and sophomore Mitch Wolfe were named Central Collegiate Hockey Association Players of the Week announced Monday.
 
Jutting earns his first CCHA weekly accolade and was named the Forward of the Week while Wolfe also earns his first weekly nod as Defenseman of the Week.
 
Jutting led all CCHA skaters with four points on two goals and two assists last week, leading the Beavers to their second-ever MacNaughton Cup title with a sweep of Minnesota State. Scoring one game-winning goal, he was a +3 with four shots on goal and two blocks at the defensive end of the ice. On Friday, he recorded a season-best four points, scoring twice and picking up two helpers in a 6-0 Bemidji State victory. The win locked up the regular season championship.
 
Wolfe paced all conference blueliners with three points last weekend, including scoring his first collegiate goal and contributing two assists. His plus-minus of +6 was tops among all CCHA skaters and he notched two shots and two blocks. On Friday, he assisted on the final goal in Bemidji State's 6-0 – MacNaughton Cup-clinching – victory over Minnesota State. He then potted the game-winning goal in a 2-0 triumph in the regular season finale on Saturday.
 
In total this season, Bemidji State had 16 student-athletes earn CCHA weekly awards.
 
Joining Jutting and Wolfe were Northern Michigan's Beni Halasz (Goaltender) and Lake Superior State's Branden Piku (Rookie) as weekly award winners.
