GRAND FORKS, N.D. – Graduate student defenseman Chris Jandric was named the National Collegiate Hockey Conference's Defenseman of the Week, as announced by the league office on Monday afternoon.

Jandric was dynamic on both ends of the ice for No. 3 North Dakota in a sweep over Holy Cross, notching a team-high four points on the weekend and finishing with a plus-3 rating to garner the first weekly honor from the NCHC.

On Friday, the Prince George, B.C., native tallied a personal best three assists in the 6-0 shutout win against the Crusaders before adding another helper in the 4-1 victory on Saturday night. The four points on the weekend are the most over a two-game stretch for Jandric in his collegiate career.

The defenseman was also strong in his own end, blocking a trio of shots and helping the Fighting Hawks finish a perfect 8-for-8 on the penalty kill. As a team, UND allowed just one goal to Holy Cross, coming in the final three minutes of Saturday's finale.

No. 3 UND remains home to host No. 8/7 Quinnipiac on Friday and Saturday night at Ralph Engelstad Arena.
