After becoming the second Colorado College player in
three years to win the Hobey Baker Award as a junior,
Marty Sertich returned for a final year with the Tigers in 2005-06. As a senior, he was again named a Hobey Baker finalist. The Roseville, Minnesota native finished his college career with 121 assists and 182 points to rank seventh and tied for 12th, respectively, on the school’s all-time charts. The 2004-05 First-Team All-American and national scoring champion (27 goals and 37 assists for 64 points in 42 games) played in 166 consecutive games for the Tigers without missing one, collecting at least one point in 108 games, including 30 of 42 in his final campaign. He was involved in 35 game-winning goals during his four years with the team, scoring 11 and helping to set up 24, and recorded 53 multiple-point games. Sertich spent his first two seasons of pro hockey with Iowa of the AHL, followed by two seasons with that league’s Lake Erie Monsters. Sertich then played two seasons in Switzerland and is now playing for Iserlohn in Germany.
