Notre Dame gets Nick Leivermann back for fifth season
Notre Dame is expected to have a lot of turnover on next year’s roster after having many seniors and graduate students this year. Defenseman Nick Leivermann was one of those seniors. However, he’s not going anywhere. That’s because he has decided to come back for a fifth season.
Leivermann, who had 27 points in 2021-22 to tie for second on the Irish, said the following:
““After looking at potential options, I felt returning to Notre Dame would be best for my career development. I’m looking forward to continuing my education and becoming a Double Domer and I’m excited to hit the ice with our returning group.”
Irish coach Jeff Jackson also chimed in:
“We’re very excited to have Nicky returning to our program. He’ll continue to develop his game and strive to become one of the best defensemen in the country. He also has the experience and leadership qualities necessary to help sustain our culture moving forward.”
Congratulations to the 2017 Colorado Avalanche seventh-round pick and three-time Big Ten All Academic Team selection. Let’s hope next season will be his best.
