His efforts have guided Omaha to a 7-2-2 record and helped earn the program's first National Top 10 ranking earlier this season. Â Currently, Ibisevic ranks sixth nationally in goals scored (eight) and 18th in total points (17).
Ibisevic and the 24th-ranked Mavericks return to action on Saturday, Oct. 14 against Michigan.Â
