“Hockey has always meant everything to me. It is the reason I came to Northwood and why I push myself every day to be the best every day. It has provided an outlet to get away from all the noise and play with my best friends. I have built so many connections and made so many memories through hockey, and I am forever thankful.”
“My favorite hockey memory to date is winning USA Hockey Nationals with my Chicago Mission 15s team in 2024. It was such a surreal experience, and I would give anything to go back to that moment. I think those moments and experiences are why I love hockey so much and give it my all every time I step on the ice or in the weight room at GVN Performance.”
“Northwood has truly provided me with an environment where I can push myself on the ice and in the classroom, like in Doc’s AP Lit class. The tight-knit community is unlike any place I have been to, and that’s what makes everyone successful. The Lake Placid environment has been amazing as well. Not many kids can call the Olympic Center their home rink, so I make sure not to take it for granted. I hope to continue playing high-level hockey in the future, and I believe that Northwood is going to help me get there.”
“In my free time, I watch Formula 1 and college football. I also hang out with my best friend Zackary. I am still abundantly salty that Notre Dame got left out of the playoffs; the committee screwed us over. I enjoy playing video games such as F1 and EA Sports College Football. Being in Berg with all the boys has been a wonderful experience so far, and I am looking forward to the rest of the year!”
