7 points in 55 games gets Perry a D1 deal? Another year of juniors maybe?

The NAHL site lists 15 players going to Air Force and the USHL site a few more. Probably over 20 when you consider other junior leagues? The current Air Force roster includes 7 seniors.

Steinhauser is completing his 3rd year of juniors.

Not sure if Perry is going another year. He is a '95 so I assume he would be in Juniors another year

Not sure when how Air Force will work in all the recruits...stagger them in year by year I guess

Congrats to Conor! Outstanding player! Very similar to Kloos.

Similar to Perry's signing at Air Force the military schools are confusing to me. I see over 10 listings for Army commits on the NAHL and USHL sites and they have one senior player on their current roster. Many schools sign the exact number as they have seniors. Doesn't seem to be the case at Air Force and Army.

The academies lose some players after their sophomore year. Once you set foot into the classroom on day one of your junior year, you are locked into a four year stint in the military after graduation. Some players realize after their sophomore year that this isn't the route they want, so they transfer out after that year.

I think that was Isaac. The article says FL:

"Another Austin Bruins and NAHL player will add to the growing pipeline to the fast-rising University of Massachusetts-Lowell program to play his college hockey. Wednesday, forward/defenseman Lucas Kohls (Forest Lake, MN) announced his commitment to the RiverHawks, who compete in the Hockey East Conference."

I checked Hockey Hub and they have him listed to FL to:
