He skated in the NCAA title game, won a gold medal at the 2010 World Junior Championship and played in the first of two outdoor hockey games in his freshman season. He captained Team USA to a bronze medal at world juniors his sophomore season, before beginning his two-year tenure as the Badgers' captain.
