Despite Flyers Prospect Alex Bump’s offensive efforts, Western Michigan couldn’t hold off Michigan State’s late comeback resulting in the Broncos’ elimination from the tournament.

Alex Bump tied the score at 2-2 with his first NCAA frozen four goal and later added a primary assist to give the Broncos the lead over Michigan State on Friday night. A former 5th round (133 overall) pick in 2023, Bump came on strong as his freshman season progressed at WMU as he finished just short of a point-per-game with 36 points in 38 games, 14 goals and 24 assists.

Bump could prove to be a steal for the Flyers as the offensive tools are evident and he’s already built like an NHL player. Look for Bump to improve on his collegiate numbers next season.
