Air Force Academy freshman Brian Gineo was named the College Hockey America rookie of the week for his performance against American International, Oct. 24-25.
The defenseman from South Windsor, Conn., helped lead the Falcons to a weekend sweep of AIC by scoring three points. He also had nine shots and was a +2 on the weekend. Gineo collected an assist in Friday's victory as Air Force won 5-1. He then scored his first career goal just one minute into Saturday's game as the Falcons rolled to a 5-1 win. Gineo also had one assist and seven shots on goal in the game.
The honor is the first of Gineo's career and the fifth Air Force player honored this season.
Air Force opens CHA play Oct. 31-Nov. 1 as the Falcons travel to Alabama-Huntsville for a two-game series.
