Cents Name Steve Tresierra 2010-11 Team Captain

Merritt, BC – July 20, 2010

The Merritt Centennials are pleased to announce their captain for the 2010-11 season. Wearing the “C” will be three-year BCHL veteran defenceman Steve Tresierra.

“We are delighted that not only has Steve decided to return to Merritt for another season, but that he has agreed to take on the responsibility of being our captain. He provides the necessary foundation for creating a culture based on character, work ethic and determination,” said Cents head coach and GM Luke Pierce. “Steve's a tremendous individual who is well liked and respected in our community, and an elite player in our league who commands the respect of his opponents.”

Pierce continued, “He sets the precedent for what is expected of our players and it will be the responsibility of each member of this team to emulate the characteristics that led to Steve being given this honour.”

Assistant captains will be named at a later date.
