Class of 2024: 4th year on varsity. Evenly split time with Jason Slicker who graduated last year. Slicker was on the wall all of last year and Baker's goals against was slightly higher. He worked over the summer with Randy Wilson. Randy is a long-time goalie coach at various levels and coached many goalies including Hellabuyck. Great student with over a 4-point cumulative GPA, class president each of his hs years. Baker takes up a lot of net, is very quick and agile, and has a great glove hand. He has the ability to steal a game and his teammates play with a lot of confidence knowing he's back there. He's one of our captains, a leader, and a character guy. He has a ton of pride in wearing our jersey representing his school and his team - Tim Ronayne, Lakeland Head Coach
Class of 2024: Bryant is an exceptionally athletic goaltender. He moves with quickness and precision. He's sound, consistent, and an incredibly respected teammate. Bryant has been the Gremlin's starter for the past three seasons and his high-level play has been an often-overlooked reason for our success. - Micah Stipech, Houghton Head Coach
(2023 Wall Award Winner) - Class of 2024 - He's a kid who's continued to improve every year and has the experience of big moments from the past two seasons. He gives us a chance to win every night. - Kurt Kivisto, Brighton Head Coach
Class of 2024 - Brady Swanson brings it every single day in practice and is such a dedicated player in the way he operates and carries himself on and off the ice. He has proven he has the ability to be the X factor for us in the games we need him to be. Jordan Steger - Byron Center Head Coach
