HOCKEY PLAYER OF THE YEAR — MARK ARNONE

SCHOOL: Kenmore East

GRADE: Senior

POSITION: Forward

STATS: 22 goals, 18 assists (40 points).

SCOOP: Three-year varsity player. ... Bulldogs’ career leader in points (115), goals (63), points in league play (33), goals in league play (18) and plus-minus (+41). ... Led team to first Federation title in ‘08-09 season. ... Was small schools division regular season leading scorer (18 goals, 15 assists) this year. ... All-State honorable mention last season. ... Bowman Showcase participant. ... National Honor Society member.

COACH’S QUOTE: “Part of our success over the past three seasons has been his leadership. He’s been a great captain who always knew when he had to push the guys a little bit or lay off. As far as his individual talents, he’s a tough-nosed forward. He definitely has the quickest release and hardest snap shot I’ve seen in nine years of coaching in the Federation.”
