Kowalski named Subway Player of the Week

December 9, 2019 

Vernon Vipers forward Matt Kowalski has been named the Subway BCHL Player of the Week for the week ending Dec. 8.

The 20-year-old had six goals and three assists for nine points in three games last week to lead all players over that stretch.

On Friday, Kowalski notched his second-career BCHL hat trick and his first since opening day of the 2017-18 season when he was a member of the West Kelowna Warriors. He also added a pair of assists to give himself a five-point night and a first-star honour in the Vipers’ 8-3 home win over the Merritt Centennials. The next night, he scored once in a 6-4 victory against the Wenatchee Wild. On Sunday, the Vernon native added two more goals and chipped in with an assist in Vernon’s wild 8-7 shootout win in a rematch against the Centennials.

After this weekend’s action, Kowalski leads the Vipers in scoring and sits tied for eighth overall in the BCHL with 35 points and third in goals with 19. He also now has 11 multi-point games on the season and has at least one point in 11 straight games.

Congrats Matty! Wow what a season Kowalski is having! Where would the Vipers be without Kowalski and Reilly Herbst this year? Before the season started, I thought Kowalski was going to be captain. Can you believe Kowalski is in his sixth season in the league? Wow!
