Ohio State's Jobst Signs with Islanders


Ohio State University senior forward Mason Jobst has signed a two-year, two-way contract as a free agent with the NHL's New York Islanders.

Jobst, 25, from Speedway, Ind., closed out his collegiate career on Friday with the Buckeyes' 2-0 loss to Denver in an NCAA West Regional semifinal in Fargo, N.D. The 5-foot-8 center led Ohio State in scoring this season with 17 goals and 19 assists for 36 points in 36 games, as OSU won the Big Ten Conference regular-season title.

In four years in Columbus, Jobst scored 69 goals and added 95 assists for 164 points in 150 career NCAA appearances, including a career-high 55 points as a sophomore, and last season helped OSU to its first NCAA Frozen Four since 1998. Prior to college, he prepped four seasons with Muskegon (USHL), where he collected 20 goals and 88 points in 156 outings.
