Senior defenseman Jake Bunz (Middleton, Wis.) of the University of Wisconsin Men’s Hockey team was named the 2019 Hockey Humanitarian Award recipient, which was announced on Friday afternoon at the Harborcenter as part of the Men’s Frozen Four weekend. Bunz is the 24th winner in the award’s history, which was first awarded in 1996.
The other four award finalists were Cam Beecy (Norwich), Annie Pankowski (Wisconsin), Tommy Parran (Ohio State) and Luke Rivera (SUNY-Fredonia)
The Hockey Humanitarian Award is given each year to college hockey’s finest citizen — a student-athlete who makes significant contributions not only to his or her team, but also to the community-at-large through leadership in volunteerism.
