The Sherwood Park Crusaders are pleased to announce that forward Jack Hamly (1998) has committed to the University of Alberta-Augustana Vikings for the 2019-20 season.
The University of Alberta-Augustana, located in Camrose, Alberta, is an ACAC program that finished with a 17-10-1 record last season. The Vikings are coached by Blaine Gusdal who has been with the University since the 2008-09 season.
?Jack (Hamly) was a fantastic contributor both in the room and on the ice in his short time with the Crusaders organization,? said General Manager, Kyle Chase. ?We wish Jack all the best in the future, as Augustana has acquired an incredible teammate and a very complete player.?
