    Toledo's Brandon Hawkins continues to excel, knocking down another ECHL milestone on Friday night as the club moved past the Cyclones.

    The Toledo Walleye are riding high, sitting third in the western conference and topping the central division. The club is 4-2-2-2 in their past 10 games, with much of the credit to their strong run and sparkling numbers going to league points and goal leader Brandon Hawkins.

    Hawkins, 29, has followed up a 39-goal, 81-point season with the Walleye in 2022-23 with a league-leading run in 2023-24. Through 46 games Hawkins has put up 28 goals and added 33 assists for 61 points.

    Last night's 6-4 victory over the Cincinnati Cyclones saw Hawkins reach yet another key milestone, as he netted his 100th goal as a Walleye. 

    The undrafted forward has bounced between the AHL and ECHL through his pro career, with American League stints with Wilkes-Barre/Scranton, Rochester, Cleveland and Chicago. 

    In the ECHL Hawkins has suited up for the Wheeling Nailers, Fort Wayne Komets and three seasons with the Walleye. Overall Hawkins has amassed a sturdy 278 points across 248 games.
