Road To
College Showcase 2009
Dear
Players, Coaches and Parents:
Thank you for making this summer's showcase a
great success. This past year 31 colleges came over the course of the weekend
represented by 56 coaching visits occurred during the weekend as several
programs including Amherst, Babson, Bentley, Brown, Colby, Colgate, Connecticut
College, Dartmouth, Harvard, Holy Cross, Princeton, Stonehill, Trinity, UNH,
Wesleyan and Williams had multiple coaches attend or spend multiple days evaluating
players during the weekend. Below is a
list of the programs and the coaches who attended the showcase during the
weekend.
In addition to the strong showing of D1 and D3
colleges, USA Hockey, NHL Central Scouting, The Los Angeles Kings and the Washington
Capitals all sent representatives to evaluate players as well.
BJ Baker also has provided us with his
presentations from the nutrition PowerPoint and the Sunday morning
stretching/warm-up with the foam roller and stretch band progression PDFs.

Finally, for those who would like to take our
SAT or ACT Diagnostic this summer with our partners at the Academic Approach,
you can simply reach out to me any time from now through September 1 to take
the full length diagnostic test of your choice. You can reach out to me at
chughes@roadtocollege.com, and I will set up the test for you.
You may also wish to visit the Academic Approach's website at
www.theacademicapproach.com to inquire about 1-1 tutoring programs they
offer students.
The success of our program is based on the
support we receive from college coaches, prep/junior coaches, parents and the
players themselves, and we thank everyone for believing in a mission that is
dedicated to creating more opportunities for players by not only getting hockey
exposure but also by helping student-athletes develop their academic,
leadership and admissions credentials. We
are also thrilled that three players who attended our showcase last summer were
recently drafted in the NHL entry draft, lead by Chris Kreider who was selected
in the first round by the New York Rangers.
Thanks again for a great weekend.
Best wishes,
Chuck and Dan
