The Commonwealth Coast Conference recently named Blake Wojtala ’19 goaltender of the week for men’s ice hockey.

Wojtala went 2-0 in net for Salve Regina against two nationally-ranked opponents to help the Seahawks win their second consecutive Codfish Bowl championship. He opened the tournament with 38 saves against Adrian College before defeating University of Massachusetts Boston with a 41-save showing in the title game. Wojtala only allowed two goals in each contest, and was named the tournament’s most outstanding player for the second straight year.

Salve Regina (10-3-2, 7-1-2 CCC) will host its second annual Martha’s Vineyard Classic this weekend in Vineyard Haven, Massachusetts. Curry College, Neumann University and Westfield State University will also participate in the classic, with the Seahawks skating at 6 p.m. Friday, Jan. 12 and 1 p.m. Saturday, Jan. 13.
