* SIGNED LETTER OF INTENT WHILE PLAYING FOR DRUMHELLER
The Drumheller Dragons are pleased to announce the commitment of 17 year old Eric Slemp to the University of Alaska Fairbanks for the 2009-2010 season. This marks the fourth Dragons player to receive a scholarship to UAF in the past 3 seasons. We are excited for Eric and his Parents, Roland and Iris, as Eric has worked very hard to get this opportunity.
Rob Hegberg had this to say about his freshman forward, “Eric has proven to us and UAF that he can play at an elite level, he has put in the time and effort and is now being rewarded for it. Eric has been a great addition to our forward line up with 8 goals, 4 assists for 12 points in 15 games to start the season. He is getting better everyday and has done everything we have asked of him. He has a bright future ahead of him!”
Eric joins three Dragons Alumni, Brandon Knelsen, Dion Knelsen and Jeff young to move on to Alaska and suit up for the Nanooks. The Dragons Organization extends congratulations to Eric and his Parents for this great opportunity and wish him the best of luck! |
