After a near-perfect month, Kitchener Rangers netminder Jacob Ingham has been named the OHL Goaltender of the Month for December.

Ingham recorded nine victories over 10 starts last month, with a 1.69 goals-against average, .948 save percentage and two shutouts.

The Barrie native’s return from injury on Nov. 28 helped kickstart the Rangers’ run, which has seen the team win 13 of its last 14 games and left it tied for fourth place in the standings.
