Omaha Hockey sophomore forward Trevor Wong has been named a finalist for the 2026 National Collegiate Hockey Conference (NCHC) Sportsmanship Award, according to an announcement from the league.
The NCHC Sportsmanship Award is given to a student-athlete who positively influences the culture of college hockey, demonstrates respect and integrity, and upholds the spirit of the game even during challenging moments.
Head coach Mike Gabinet commented on Wong’s conduct throughout the season. “Trevor Wong consistently plays with discipline and respect, leading our team in points while taking only two minor penalties all season,” Gabinet said. “He accepted a two-game eligibility suspension with maturity and handled the situation without complaint, supporting his teammates throughout the start of the season while not being a full participant. Trevor models strong habits in practice, represents the program well academically and is widely respected by coaches and teammates. His approach to competition, honest and team-first, reflects the core values of sportsmanship.”
Wong has scored five goals and contributed 14 assists for a total of 19 points during the 2025-26 season. He also recorded a game-winning goal against St. Cloud State on January 9.
Omaha will play North Dakota in Grand Forks for an NCHC quarterfinal matchup at Ralph Engelstad Arena. Fans can listen to live coverage on 1290 KOIL or through Varsity Network, with streaming available on NCHC.tv.
