Coxey has played outstanding defense this entire season, but his efforts were great in games played against Luther College (Iowa) and UW-Oshkosh. He is part of a strong defense that shut out a strong Luther attack limiting them to four shots on goal and played a valuable role in a 5-2 win against the Titans.
