By @MichaelCaples –

Nick Schilkey has cracked the conference weekly honor roll once again.

The Marysville native and Ohio State captain posted five points in two games against Connecticut this weekend, landing him the Big Ten Conference’s first star of the week.

It’s Schilkey’s second honor of the season, and the sixth of his Big Ten career.

Schilkey, who now has 15 points in 11 games to start his senior season, scored one goal and added two assists in Friday’s lopsided 7-4 victory for the Buckeyes.

The Green Bay Gamblers alum followed that up with another goal and assist in a 3-3 tie on Saturday.
