Connor Hitzig '26 Recruiting Profile

I started playing hockey at 6 years old and the moment I started, I knew that I would love this game for the rest of my life. I have always dreamed of being able to be blessed with the chance to play hockey in prep school, college, or in juniors. I believe my leadership and confidence on the ice would impact not only the coaches and players, but the entire team and/or franchise. I am committed to eating healthy and training towards my goals, have been a solid student with all A’s and B’s in my classes, and dedicate myself to my hockey development and academic achievements.  I have faced adversity and challenges during my father's one year hospitalization battle while he waited for a heart transplant and moving from Southern CA to Denver, CO.  I continued to remain positive and focus on what I could control, and gave my best to playing the sport I love.  I know I can be an incredible asset to a team and will continue to exceed expectations.
