The
Rampage move another Player to NCAA
The management of the Tulsa Rampage
are pleased to announce that Kent Kirby will be advancing to the NCAA
Division III level for the upcoming season. After a successful season
as a winger on the team's red line, he will be traveling to
Massachusetts to join the Bison Hockey program at Nichols college for
the fall semester.
Kirby joined the Rampage at the
beginning of the season as a veteran junior player after playing a
season with the Twin Bridges Lightning Junior program in the Minnesota
Junior Hockey League. That veteran leadership was a significant benefit
to the Rampage as Kirby notched 29 goals and 17 assists for a total of
46 points in only 39 regular season games. He added to his point total
in the post season with an additional 2 goals and 1 assist in the team's
two playoff rounds. "Kirby was a big asset to me this season and I know
that he'll do well at the DIII level too," Coach MacLeod notes "he works
hard, is a great kid, and really deserves the opportunity." That
sentiment is echoed by general manager Julie Wilson. "Its a pleasure to
watch Kirby play because every time he's on the ice, something exciting
happens" she says "he's an aggressive player and really has what it
takes to succeed at the next level."
