Rochester, MI-Oakland ACHA DI Hockey general manager Corey Hagood has announced that goalie Jonah Stern has committed to Oakland. Oakland has one goalie spot remaining on the roster as recruiting continues.
Stern comes to Oakland from the Motor City Gamblers (USPHL Premier) where he registered a save percentage 88%. Prior to Motor City, Stern played for the Connecticut Jr. Rangers (USPHL Elite) where he had a save percentage of 91%.
“I’m excited to start my college journey and being able to play for the school that I picked” Stern stated. “I’m excited to get a great experience and education.”
“We are excited to have Jonah join the team.” Assiatant coach Greg Meuser said “He brings in a competitive edge and will create that competition for the crease each night. We look forward to developing Jonah into the best goalie he can be. We are happy he chose OU to stay close to home and play in front of his friends and family.”
He will be starting his college career close to home giving those close to him a chance to watch. “I wanted to play here for the upcoming seasons because it gives me a chance to play at home, so my family and friends can come out and watch me play and continue my path for my career.” Stern added.
“You guys can expect a big player that tries to be a leader by helping others out by using my voice.” Stern said “I am very acrobatic, so you will see a lot of cool saves to get the team up on their feet to keep pushing them to win.
“I will always do my job.” Stern added.
Stern was impressed with how easy it was to talk to the coaching staff during the recruitment process. “The coaching staff was very easy to talk to and very nice.” Stern said. “I can’t wait to be coached by them this season.”
He plans on studying business management here at Oakland University.
