Personal Statement
I'm a 19 year old forward and currently in my second season with the Granite City Lumberjacks of the NA3HL. My ultimate goal is to play NCAA College hockey while continuing my education.
This year I've been given a leadership position as Assistant Captain and I am proud to be in this role. As Assistant Captain, I focus on leading by example, helping to acclimate rookie players, motivate my teammates especially in challenging times. Additionally, I have found that my level headed and fair approach has resulted in my being a sounding board for both players and coaches.
I am a hard grinding forward who's not afraid to go to the dirty areas. I distribute the puck well and take pride in my defensive play. I believe in the team concept and always make the unselfish play. My coaches trust me to play in all key situations, including both special teams.
In addition to being a leader on the ice, I also understand the importance of being a good teammate, student. I always focus my attitude, actions and behaviors with the same values on, and off the ice.
