Keohane broke a 48-year old record with his 52 goals, Colby Gillis dished out 46 assists which broke the previous mark of 42, a record which stood for 41 years. Ehrenberg, meanwhile, set records for face-off wins (258), ground balls (136), and face-off winning pct. (.596).
A 2021 graduate of Nichols College with a degree in marketing, Ambrosino appeared in 47 career games for the Bison (2018-21) and collected 80 ground balls as a long stick defender for former head coach Eric Gobiel and current bench boss John Carroll.
