The Ghostriders have named center Thomas Abenante as their Captain for the 2010-2011 season. They have also named Cale Wright and Zach Baba as assistant Captains. In Abenante they have a relentless superfit center who can stick his nose in and score, in Wright they have probably the most balanced player on the team who can man the blue line or be a valuable forward. In Baba the Riders have some very much needed toughness, and a little toughness is the one thing this team is lacking. Below is the perss release.
Will Verner ” The Fernie Ghostriders have named Thomas Abenante team Captain. Abenante brings a wealth of experience to the Riders leadership role as he has played Junior hockey for the past 4 seasons. Zach Baba and Cale Wright have been named Assistant Captains. This year is very important for our organization and we felt it was critical to allow the group time for the leaders to emerge. We will rely heavily on these 3 young men to lead us to a Western Canadian Championship.
