The senior attackman scored five goals and dished out three assists for a career-high eight points in Vermont's 23-9 win over UMass Lowell on Saturday. In three career games against the River Hawks, McCormack has scored 16 goals – the most by any active Catamount against UMass Lowell.
 
This season, the Williamstown, Mass. native is third on the team with 31 points and second with 25 goals. That mark is good for fourth in America East. In just two seasons at UVM, McCormack has 75 points.
