How are you feeling since your senior season has been postponed?
I wasn't happy with the decision just like most athletes I'm assuming. It hurt especially bad because I had just gotten my lungs back and was starting to get back into shape for the season. I've been keeping in shape by lifting and skating on the outdoor rink a lot
When the season starts back up what are some personal or team goals you would like to accomplish?
​Well a team goal for me is to finish above .500, hopefully we’re  well above, and to go to Amsoil Arena for the playoffs. Personally my goal is just to contribute to the team and play hard all game long.
Based on playing together in previous seasons, what do you think the teams biggest strength is?
Our biggest strengths is that we are always in good condition, so we go hard all game. We also have superb goaltending. Additionally, we are a smart team and we’re a very solid defensive team and a good offensive team that creates good scoring opportunities.
​Do you personally or as a team have any pre-game rituals?
Personally I retape my stick in the bleachers and listen to music and get in the zone. As far as team rituals go, we stretch together, go for a jog together, play keep up with a soccer ball, some guys pass together, and get prepared for the game.
​What is your favorite hockey memory from over the years?
My favorite hockey memory over my career is definitely spending time with some of the greatest teammates ever and playing hockey with them. In addition to village inn, bus rides, and the hotels in rec hockey over the years.

Position: Goaltender
​​How are you feeling since your senior season has been postponed?
I’m feeling sad and disappointed for the most part, it’s tough having the last season of the sport that you’ve played throughout your life taken away from you.
​​When the season starts back up what are some personal or team goals you would like to accomplish?
I would love to be over 500 and make some memories that I won’t forget with the team. It would be really awesome to be able to be Section Champions or even go to the state tournament if they allow it.
​Based on playing together in previous seasons, what do you think the teams biggest strength is?
 The teams biggest strength will definitely be the amount of skaters we have from all different age groups. We have a lot of opportunity to toss guys around & see what works best for us. There’s a lot of potential in all of the boys!
​​​​Do you personally or as a team have any pre-game rituals?
As a team, we always go down to the back of the arena and play soccer and stretch as a team. Personally, I always do some drills with racquetballs to engage my reflexes and get them ready. I also jam out to music while doing those drills and getting dressed.
​​​What is your favorite hockey memory from over the years?
My favorite memory over the years was during my junior year. We beat the Fort Frances Muskies 3-2 at home and after the game our student section threw me an American flag that I skated around the arena with to celebrate.
