North Stars’ Medernach talks commitment to NAIT Ooks
Battlefords North Stars’ forward, Josh Medernach has announced his commitment to the NAIT Ooks for the fall of 2024, joining one of the top collegiate programs in the Alberta Colleges Athletic Conference (ACAC).
“It feels great to join the team and the college,” Medernach said of his excitement for the opportunity ahead. “Committing so early was extremely important to me so I can begin my new journey in the Business Education program, also joining a highly successful hockey program.”
Medernach joins a NAIT hockey program that has won four ACAC championships since 2013 and made the league finals two of the last three years.
Bringing a wealth of big-game experience in his own right, Medernach is coming off a lengthy junior career that included a run to last year’s Western Hockey League (WHL) finals with the Winnipeg Ice, and this year’s SJHL semis with the North Stars.
