JAMES CODY: BROCKPORT ATHLETE OF THE WEEK

Senior forward James Cody (Schwenksville, PA) of The College at Brockport Men's Ice Hockey team has been named Male Athlete of the Week after helping the Golden Eagles to a 1-0-1 record over the weekend.

Participating in the Skidmore College Invitational Tournament in Saratoga Springs, Cody notched his 50th career goal as part of a hat trick in the consolation game on Sunday afternoon. Cody's three goals came in a 7-3 victory over Nichols College. He has moved into a tie for No. 6 on the all-time goals list, and needs only two points to reach the 100-career point mark.

In the first round of the tournament on Saturday, Cody and the Golden Eagles skated to a 5-5 tie with Hamilton College. Cody scored one goal and had three assists on the day. One of the assists came with 1:10 to play as Cody and Ian Finnerty (Ardmore, PA) fed Adam Shoff (Port Dover, ONT) to tie the game at five.

Cody's seven points over the weekend earned him a spot on the All-Tournament team. This is the second time this season Cody has been named Athlete of the Week at Brockport.
