Coach Mark Mazzoleni also noted Jonas' practice habits as worthy of praise.

"He's prepared himself well. He came into camp noticeably much stronger," Mazzoleni said. "He's taken the ball and run with it."

Starting with the Crimson's 1-1 tie with Cornell on November 17th, Jonas has caught the attention of many with his phenomenal play. After limiting the Big Red to a single goal, Jonas helped the Crimson edge perennial power Boston University 4-3. In the ensuing game, he posted a career high 44 saves against Boston College, the team currently ranked No. 2 in the country.

Jonas tries to deflect much of the praise he receives, attributing his success and the team's record to the resourceful play of his defense and the team as a whole.

"I've been playing well, but [our success] is more a reflection of how our defense has played," Jonas said.

And he is clearly excited about the second half of the season, looking forward to competing in the ECAC tournament.

"I think we're gonna do better in the second half of the season," Jonas said.

Jonas and the other Crimson players will have their work cut out for them if they are to improve on the team's ECAC-leading record.
