Selkirk's Edwards earns Player of the Week honours after 10-point weekend

Selkirk College forward Ryan Edwards has been named the British Columbia Intercollegiate Hockey League's Player of the Week for the week ending January 25th.

Edwards put forward one of the top offensive performances of the 2014/15 season this weekend in the Saints' home-and-home sweep of Eastern Washington University.

On Friday, the Trail, BC product scored four goals -- including a pair on the power-play -- and assisted on another man-advantage marker by Danny Vlanich as the Saints cruised to an 8-2 victory in Cheney.

One night later, on home ice, Edwards became the playmaker with four assists along with a shorthanded goal in an 11-0 Selkirk win.

After beginning his rookie BCIHL season with 10 points through 16 games, the 21-year old doubled his points total in one weekend. Edwards now leads the Saints in goals and sits second behind linemate Darnell Dyck in points. He has also moved into the Top-10 in league scoring, sitting eighth.

Runners up for this week's award include Trinity Western University forward Mattias Schmitt, University of Victoria defenceman James Tindle and Trinity Western University goaltender Silas Matthys.
