Citrino scored 23 points (5 goals, 13 assists) and Feil and Hoose made significant contributions on the defensive side of the ball.
"I am happy that so many of our boys received this well-deserved recognition," Coach Fitch said. "As I've said before, their on-field performance and and any awards that follow are just returns on the investment they make into their athletic development."
"If you take a look at where our four seniors landed on the list, it goes without saying that they leave big holes for us to fill for next season."
