July 1, 2009
USAFA, Colo. - Ten Air Force hockey players were named to the 2009 Atlantic Hockey Association all-academic team, as announced today by the AHA.

The 10 Falcons honored on the team include freshman goalie Stephen Caple, junior forward Matt Fairchild, senior defenseman Greg Flynn, senior forward Josh Frider, freshman defenseman Scott Mathis, senior forward Mike Phillipich, junior goalie Andrew Volkening, freshman forward Paul Weisgarber, freshman defenseman Mark Williams and sophomore defenseman Kevin Wright. To qualify for the AHA all-academic team, an individual must post a 3.0 grade point average or higher in all of the academic periods during which his team was actively competing.
