Vernon Vipers forward Dawson Holt has been named the Subway BCHL Player of the Week for the week ending Mar. 8.

The 21-year-old from Saskatoon, Sask. registered two goals and seven assists for nine points in three games last week, helping the Vipers to a 4-1 series win over the Wenatchee Wild.

On Tuesday, Holt contributed three assists, including two with the man advantage, as Vernon topped Wenatchee 4-2 in Game 3. He was named the game’s second star.

The following night, he was even more productive, netting two goals and adding three helpers for his first-career five-point night in the BCHL, en route to a 6-4 Vipers win. He was named first star of the game.
