North Stars reflect on SJHL/MJHL showcase experience
With Battlefords North Stars forward Dakota Huebner not able to take part in this week’s Saskatchewan Junior Hockey League and Manitoba Junior Hockey League showcase due to injury, the majority of North Stars that did take part didn’t have to worry too much about impressing scouts.
That’s because three of the five North Stars that participated on the ice — Layne Young, Levi Kleiboer, and MacGregor Sinclair — secured scholarships to post-secondary institutions earlier this season.
Young will head to the University of Saskatchewan next season, Sinclair will go to Canisius College in 2019-20, and Kleiboer will attend the University of Maine next year.
But that didn’t make the experience of taking part any less special.
