The final Big Ten weekly stars for the 2016-17 regular season were announced today, and Zach Nagelvoort made sure to go out with a bang.

The Wolverines’ senior netminder was named the first star of the week, after Nagelvoort posted a shutout during ‘senior night’ at Yost Saturday night.

The native of Holland, Mich., led the Wolverines to a 4-0 victory over nationally-ranked Penn State on Saturday, earning his fifth career shutout and his second in his last three starts.

It’s his eighth weekly award and second of the season.
