With the NCAA DI and USHL seasons underway and NCAA DIII teams starting to practice it is time to check in how the Tauro alumni are doing at the next levels. It was a big weekend for goaltenders Atte Tolvanen (2014/15) picked up his first college win for Northern Michigan on Friday stopping 20 of 21 shots and followed that up with a 43 save performance in a loss in a weekend set with Michigan Tech. Brandon Wildung (2013/14) stopped 37 of 39 shots in Mercyhurst’s 5-2 win over Army. Ryan Ruck looked pretty good in his second college game making the save of the year for Northeastern. Take a look at the numbers for the rest of the alum below.
