Elov Seger

Elov Seger (June 6, 1940 – March 8, 1968) was a Canadian ice hockey defenseman who was an All-American

After graduating, Seger continued his playing career, spending the next four seasons playing in the USHL (then a senior league), but his playing career was cut short when he was diagnosed with a brain tumor. Seger eventually succumbed to the disease in March 1968 but he was not forgotten by Michigan Tech. The program confers the Elov Seger Memorial Award to the player who has shown the greatest improvement. Seger was also inducted into the Michigan Tech Athletic Hall of Fame in 1998.
