Yale Hockey Players Earn Weekly Distinction in January

In addition to serving as a board member with Engage Therapeutics, Warren Lammert is the chief investment officer and CEO of the Boston, Massachusetts, firm Granite Point Capital. Warren Lammert holds a master's degree in economic history from the London School of Economics and Political Sciences and a bachelor's degree in economics from Yale University, where he played junior varsity hockey.

Although the Yale men's hockey team experienced a 7-0 loss to Harvard in January, it followed that up with back-to-back victories over Eastern College Athletic Conference (ECAC) rivals Union (5-0) and Rensselaer (4-1). Consequently, the team's goaltender Corbin Kaczperski and forward Curtis Hall were named ECAC Goalie of the Week and ECAC Player of the Week, respectively, for the week ending January 19.

Kaczperski stopped 48 of the 49 shots he faced in the back-to-back victories, while Hall scored four of Yale's nine goals and added an assist. Hall, who became the first Yale player to earn the weekly distinction in the 2019-20 season, had a team-leading 13 goals through the first 17 games of the season. Earlier in the year, the Boston Bruins draft pick represented the United States at the World Junior U-20 Championships and scored one goal in five games.
