Personal Statement

Hello, my name is Antonio Tarantino, I am 20 years old playing Goaltender at the junior hockey level. I’ve completed two full seasons going into my final junior year in 2022/2023 season.

I am continuing my academic, athletic and personal development while playing at the junior hockey level, with the hopes of playing college level hockey at the highest level I can achieve.

What makes me a desirable prospect for your team is my motivation to continually evaluate my game on the ice, my academics off the ice and my leadership skills in the locker room. I have enjoyed volunteering my time with the Jr Sharks Club at various community events in the past. I continue to enjoy working with younger goalies.

I have always been a coachable player throughout my playing career, always receptive to adjustments to improve my game and the team.

I consider my on ice time as a time to fine tune my game and to work at being the best player I can be at my position. I thrive on a structured environment in my academics and athletics.

Thank you for taking the time to learn more about me
