Hillman, the Big Ten Tournament's Most Valuable Player, was also an All-West Region first team choice for the second time after registering one goal and nine assists for 11 points while quarterbacking the Michigan defense, which limited opponents to just 1.89 goals per game and posted five shutouts.
Michigan (16-8, 3-3 Big Ten) concluded the 2005 campaign with its seventh straight NCAA Tournament appearance. The Wolverines also won the Big Ten Tournament for the third time in program history.
