McNamara enjoyed the best season of his career, finishing with three goals while anchoring a defense that posted seven shutouts while allowing just 1.08 goals per game. Heller was also brilliant in his sophomore campaign, recording two goals and one assist while serving as a consistently dominant force in the midfield.
Fogarty and Nickerson also made their first appearance on the All-Conference squad, as both earned Second Team status. Fogarty continued to be an excellent distributer, finishing second on the team to Winn with 12 assists to go along with three goals for 18 points. Nickerson also emerged as a dynamic offensive threat in his rookie season, netting 11 goals - second only to Winn on the team - and adding two assists for 24 points. Remarkably, the first-year sensation registered seven of the Beavers' 16 game-winning goals, incuding five in conference play. Nickerson was also the leading scorer in the NEWMAC in conference-only goals and points, and he netted the game-winning goal in both of Babson's NEWMAC Tournament victories.
