WHAT HE’S DONE:
Rose sent the Garnet to an ECAC title with his double-overtime goal against the Medaille Mavericks.

WHAT THE MOMENT MEANS:
“It was pretty special to win my final game in a Swarthmore shirt. It’s been an amazing four years. It was meaningful for me to end that journey on a positive note.“

HOW THE WIN FEELS:
“Any time you win a championship, it feels amazing. I’d prefer to win the conference and make the NCAAs than to win the ECAC tournament, but getting to go out on a high note was pretty awesome.”

WHAT HE’LL MISS MOST:
“The camaraderie. It’s a great group of guys who are just a ton of fun to be around, so I’ll miss spending at least a portion of every day with them.”
