Edmonton, AB (March 16, 2018) – The Alberta Colleges Athletic Conference (ACAC) is proud to announce the selection of Joel Hamilton of the SAIT Trojans as the 2017-18 ACAC men's hockey top scholastic achiever.

The fourth-year forward helped the Trojans to an 18-6-3-1 record, good for fourth place in the ACAC standings. His 28 points (eight goals, 20 assists) in 28 games led the Trojans this season, and aided him in being named an ACAC Second Team All-Conference selection.
