Coleson Barber '23 Recruiting Profile

My name is Coleson (Cole) Barber and I am a 17 year old senior in high school. I've been obsessed with hockey ever since I started playing when I was 4 years old. I've played a few other sports like soccer, basketball, baseball, tennis, and golf, but none of them have ever come close to my love for hockey. It has always been my biggest dream to play high-level hockey in college or juniors. 

I have many characteristics that would make me a great candidate to suit your team. I am very focused, a good communicator, hard-working, optimistic, resilient, positivity, and accountability. I do what is expected of me to do my job on and off the ice. I would do just about anything for my teammates, and I like to believe that they would do the same for me. 

I have made it a habit to find the positive aspects of all situations on and off the ice. I believe positivity is a big part of building a strong team. This is because people are more likely to listen to positive criticism over negative comments. It also keeps the bond throughout the team strong and limits the arguing and blaming other teammates.
