Nicholas Haust '23 Recruiting Profile

Hello NCSA coaches,

My name is Nicholas Haust. I was born in Alabama, raised in Minnesota, and am willing to go anywhere to pursue my dreams. I enjoy lake living, family time, and, of course, being on the ice with the team.

As fun as the rink is, I do enjoy other things as well. Outside of hockey, I enjoy writing and would like to pursue it further in college. I love fishing the many lakes of Minnesota and have an impressive 6.82 pound personal best bass record. I also play soccer at a high level which helps a lot with my conditioning for hockey. Family is always a number one priority as well. My family is great and we love doing things together. 

Over the years, I have had a lot of success on various teams. My first time winning a championship game was back in Squirt hockey when we won the District title. I also led the league in goals and assists. I was selected to be in the Minnesota Super Series that year as well. After all that, I have been on many teams that have won several tournament championships. I tried out for an elite hockey program called “The Choice Super League” and made the highest level team as a 7th grader. My coach has asked me to take on the captain’s role this year. Overall, I think my individual and team play has improved tremendously over the years.

My number one goal as a hockey player is to play at the highest level possible. I used to think playing at a high level would be easy and thought it would "just happen", but I know it will take serious heart and grit to remain at the highest levels. 

Thank you for viewing my profile. I am only 15 years old and have much to learn, but I have the determination to do what I have to do in order to make my dreams a reality.
