BRIDGEPORT, Pa. — Charlie Hiller (Sr., Baltimore, Md./Gilman School) of the University of Vermont accounted for five goals, seven assists and a pair of field blocks in wins over Tufts University and Bowdoin College during a 4-0 weekend at Colby College in Waterville, Maine, to earn the September 30 Men’s Collegiate Club North Atlantic Division Player of the Week award.

UVM’s club president, captain and coach, Hiller helped power the Catamounts to a 20-8 defeat of Bowdoin and a 16-4 dispatching of Tufts.  The Tufts victory marked a 12-point improvement over Vermont’s 10-9 victory over the Jumbos on September 21 during another 4-0 weekend at Middlebury College in Middlebury, Vt.
