Chris Fake then checked the award out of O'Neill's hand.

You can't win the award after being shut down on the biggest stage. Twice.

Shellenberger and O'Neill are incredible players. Shellenberger is a great kid and was coached in high school by an ND alum. He was injured for a large part of the year and his surrounding cast was superb.

This was Entenmann's award. He was robbed.

Great Line.

- In retrospect, one does wonder why a goalie -- in this case, Entenmann -- wasn't nominated as a finalist. Maybe the nominating committee has a predisposition to scorers? Needs to be rejiggered?

- O'Neill is a force, for sure, but his only goals against ND and Fake came on man-up plays when he was being zoned/left open, which plays to his strengths. On an equal playing field, nada.
