Blake Fletcher '26 Recruiting Profile

I am a 2007 birth-year, multi-sport, student-athlete and a reclassified Sophomore for the 2023-2024 academic year and attend The Tilton School in Tilton, NH. My goal is to compete in college hockey as a Forward at either the DI, II or III level. I did play defense for 2 years as a Pewee and switched back to Forward when I came to Tilton.  I am an Attackman for Tilton's Varsity Boy's Lacrosse and I am a Striker on Tilton Varsity Boy's Soccer as well as Captain of the Boys JV Soccer Team. 

Fall 2023/ Winter 2024: I am  6’-3”, 185 lbs. I shoot Lefty and I turn 17 on April 24, 2024. I play split-season hockey for the NH Selects out of Wolfeboro, NH while continuing to play Soccer for Tilton's Men's Varsity & JV (Captain) as a Striker. I had to stop playing split-season hockey & soccer after being diagnosed with Mononucleosis & Strep (only weeks earlier) in October 2023.  Before I stopped playing, I was able to score 2 Goals & 1 Assist over 3 games. On November 1, 2023 I was able to return to full contact sports. I made Honor Roll for the Fall Trimester 2023.

For the 2023/24 Hockey Season I am a Forward on the Tilton Varsity B (JV) Team. I am a top six Forward and have 17 points after 12 games (6G, 11A & 0 penalty minutes) of a 21 game season (2 opponent cancelations) and a PPG of 1.42. I had my first High School Hat Trick on 1/19/24 versus Holderness School. I am first line on Penalty Kill and second line on Power Play. During the summer of 2023 I participated in the Princeton  University Ivy Shootout in July & the BU Terrier Combine in August. I have been invited back to both events in 2024. I will be participating in more events in the Spring/Summer of 2024 while also Lifeguarding in NJ. 

In the Fall of 2022, I was a Striker for the Tilton Varsity Men’s Soccer team, a sport I had not played since I was 6, as a walk-on. In the Winter of 2022/23, I transitioned back to the position of Forward for the Tilton Men’s Varsity ‘B’ Ice Hockey team under Coach Connor Hardowa (former Capitan '13 of UNH Men's Ice Hockey Team). As a freshman on the Varsity B team, I finished the season as a top 6 Forward with 5 G, 10 A , 4 PIM and played in 21 of a 24-game season. I was on the first line Power Play as a Defenseman and on the second line Penalty Kill as a Forward and won 7 out of 11 faceoffs this season. I was used by Coach Hardowa as a ‘Utility’ player in various scenarios throughout the season, offense, or defense. I made full year Honor Roll my freshman year. 

 In September of 2021 to March 2022, I played Ice Hockey as a Defenseman for the MXB Tier 1 Middlesex Bears, under Coach Alex Moody, in Andover, Massachusetts. The team played in the NEFPHL U19 league in Salem, NH against club, prep & high school teams from NH and MA. I finished the season with 1 G, 25 A & 4 PIM. I boarded with my teammates from all over North America at an extended stay hotel in Massachusetts and was one of the youngest on my team at 14-years old. I took online, 9^th grade high school classes, through the USPA where my grades enabled me to get accepted by the Tilton School in Tilton, NH for the 2022/23 academic year. My parents, my coaches and I decided that I should reclassify as a 9^th grader so I could mature athletically

In 2020-21, I was a Bantam Defenseman for the New Jersey Rockets, my home club team since I was a Mite, where I had over 25 assists and 13 goals. This was my first season as a true Defenseman.
