CORTLAND, N.Y. — Junior goaltender Jimmy Poreda (Tonawanda, N.Y./Connecticut Jr. Rangers) of Plattsburgh State has been named the PrestoSports State University of New York Athletic Conference (SUNYAC) Men’s Ice Hockey Goaltender of the Week for the period ending Nov. 10, 2019, as announced by the conference office on Monday.

Poreda earned the honor by playing to a 1-1-0 record with 48 saves, a .923 save percentage and a 2.03 goals against average on the week. He began the week by making 26 saves at then-No. 5 Oswego State on Friday.
