GEORGE SIGNS WITH SACRED HEART

Thursday, June 16, 2011

The Weyburn Red Wings have announced forward Drew George will play college hockey with Sacred Heart University starting next season.

The 1991 born forward from Regina, Saskatchewan played in Weyburn for a year and a half. In that time, he collected 34 goals and 60 assists for 94 points –57 of those coming last season as he established himself as one of the top 1991 born players in the league.

At Sacred Heart, George joins three other SJHL alumni (Mitchell Stretch-Notre Dame, Tommy Castonguay-Flin Flon, Chad Filteau-Battlefords). He will also see another familiar face as Humboldt Broncos goaltender Andrew Bodnarchuk will also suit up for the Pioneers this season having committed to them previously.

The Wings would like to thank Drew for his time in Weyburn and wish him nothing but the best as he pursues an educational and hockey career at Sacred Heart.
