The Windsor, Ont. native followed up with a 21-point showing on Saturday as the Lancers knocked off the No. 7 nationally ranked Carleton Ravens. Across the two games, the third-year guard added 11 rebounds, four assists, and eight steals, while playing 65 of a possible 80 minutes over the weekend.

Noah Vom Scheidt, Hockey, Nipissing Lakers

Vom Scheidt was a driving force for the Nipissing Lakers’ offense this past weekend, racking up an impressive seven points over two games. The second-year forward opened the weekend with two goals and an assist in the Lakers’ overtime loss to the Queen’s Gaels on Friday night.

A playmaker from start to finish, Vom Scheidt added four more assists on Saturday in Nipissing’s matchup against Ontario Tech, helping fuel a 6–2 victory. The psychology student played a key role in generating the Lakers’ attack throughout the game.

The Ottawa, Ont. product now sits tied for second in the conference with 11 goals heading into the winter break.
