Omaha senior goaltender and co-Menke Family Captain Simon Latkoczy has been named the KJ Branding National Collegiate Hockey Conference (NCHC) Goaltender of the Week, following his stellar performance at Ed Robson Arena in Colorado Springs.
The Trencin, Slovakia, native — and reigning NCHC Goaltender of the Year — backstopped Omaha to a 5-4 upset win over then-No. 15 Colorado College on Friday, Oct. 31. Latkoczy stopped a season-high 49 shots, ensuring the Mavericks never trailed in the matchup.
His effort helped (RV) Omaha earn its first conference win of the season while handing the Tigers just their second loss of the year. Latkoczy finished the game with a .961 save percentage, anchoring the Mavericks’ road sweep of the weekend.
Through the first five games of the 2025–26 campaign, Latkoczy has totaled 172 saves, posting a .925 save percentage and 2.83 goals-against average.
This week’s recognition marks his first weekly honor of the season — and the fifth of his collegiate career.
