HYANNIS, Mass. – Vermont junior forward Dayna Colang has been named a 2014-15 Hockey East Honorable Mention All-Star, it was announced on Friday night at the Hockey East Championship banquet.
 
Colang played in all 36 games for the Catamounts this season and led the team in scoring with 18 goals and 14 assists for a career-high 32 points. Over the course of the season she had separate nine-game and 10-game point streaks.
 
It is the second straight season the Fairbanks, Alaska native has been named an Hockey East Honorable Mention All-Star.
 
This season she became the first Catamount in program history to record two career hat tricks. She scored three goals on November 14 in a 6-5 overtime win over Syracuse and again on February 1 in a 7-3 win over Providence.
 
Colang also set a program record with eight power play goals during the season. Her teammate Brittany Zuback also scored eight as Vermont tied a program record with 28 power play goals this season.
 
In conference play Colang was sixth in scoring with 12 Hockey East goals. Six of those came on power play, which was tied for first in the league with Northeastern's Kendall Coyne. Colang was also fifth in Hockey East with 32 blocked shots this season.
 
"It was exciting to see Dayna's first year as a forward and it's a credit to her that the league recognized her for having an excellent season," said head coach Jim Plumer.  "Dayna has become a legitimate threat in the offensive zone and in particular her success on the power play was a key to having one of the best power play units in the country this year.  I am looking forward to her having an even better senior year."
 
Colang will head into her senior season at Vermont with 69 points on 32 goals and 37 assists over 103 career games, fourth on the program's all-time scoring list.
