The Thundercats organization as well as the Ghostriders I am sure would like to thank all those involved in the Yukon series and especially those who sponsored this great event!
Thunder Cats Coach/GM Joe Martin is very pleased to announce that Colton Grolla from Prince George is moving onto Concordia College in Moorhead Minnesota to study Exercise Science and play hockey for their NCAA Division 3 Men's hockey team.
"Last season Colton bought into our off ice training program, when you combine that with Colton's offensive style of play and never give up attitude I'm really not surprised he is going to a great school and gets a chance to play more hockey. Last summer Colton and I talked about this exact thing, and I can honestly say he did almost all the work to get to college on his own. He knew he wanted to play more and he knew he could, I am very happy for him."
Chris Howe the Head Coach at Concordia is looking for Colton to grow with their program and chip in on the PP just like he had in Creston for a few years.
"Grolla started in Creston as a young player, had a stint in the BCHL, a close call in the SJHL, but most of his time was spent in Creston and in the KIJHL, he was with me my first year coaching in Creston and he leaves a small legacy behind." Joe Martin Head Coach/GM

Coach/GM Joe Martin traded 1990 Defenceman Matt Dixon to the Oceanside Generals this past weekend.
Unfortunately for Creston, Matt had to be moved to free up some space for other 20 year olds. While here Matt played with a ton of passion and we thank him for all his efforts in a Creston jersey
