Lekkas led Vermont to a 2-0 shutout win over St. Lawrence on Saturday. The Elburn, Illinois native stopped 20 third period shots and finished the game with 35 saves. On Friday against Clarkson, Lekkas made 29 saves in a 3-2 loss.
In total, he finished the weekend with a .955 save percentage and 1.52 goals against average. He stopped 64-of-67 shots faced in the North Country.
Lekkas became the third Catamount goalie to join the 3,000-save club in the third period at St. Lawrence.

With his fourth career shutout, Lekkas moves to seventh in program history, tied with Mike Millham '91.
