INDIANAPOLIS - The Indiana Ice announced today that forwards Brandon Richardson and Sebastian Geoffrion have come to decisions on their future Division 1 college destinations. Richardson will attend the University of Nebraska-Omaha of the Central Collegiate Hockey Association (CCHA), while Geoffrion will skate for the University of Alabama-Huntsville of College Hockey America (CHA).
Richardson currently leads the Ice in scoring with 27 points (9G, 18A) and will be heading to a Mavericks program that boasts seven former Icemen this season. Those currently in Omaha, NE include forwards Tomas Klempa, John Kemp and Jake Skjodt and defensemen Eddie Del Grosso, Eric Olimb, Mike Phillippi and Matt Smith.
