Michael Shelley, Jr. '24 Recruiting Profile

Who am I

My name is Michael Shelley, Jr.  I am currently playing tier 2 junior hockey for the Seahawks Hockey Club in the Eastern Hockey League.  I have been playing hockey for fourteen years now; however, I started playing competitive travel hockey 10 years ago.  Initially, when I started playing at five years old I was a skater.  The very next year I was introduced to goaltending and I fell in love with the position immediately.  I have been a goalie ever since.  

My Goal

My main goal is to play college hockey.  I really want to have the full college experience and I want to obtain an education that will give me the building blocks for a successful future once my competitive hockey career is complete.

Why I would Make a Great Candidate for your team

I feel I would be a great candidate for your team because I have played team sports my entire life.  While in the team setting I do my best to identify where I am needed, sometimes playing a supportive role for my teammates who need encouragement or serving as a leader on and off the ice.  I love being part of a team because it is like your own family, each member encouraging the others as they work towards a common goal.
