The Surrey Eagles are proud to announce their new captain for the 2010/11 season, Tyler Morley. Last season Morley had 37 points including 19 goals in 53 games while obtaining a scholarship to Merrimack University for the 2012/13 season.
Coach Erhart is very happy with his decision, “Tyler is the type of player every team wants as their captain. He plays hard every shift and always leads by example.”
Morley’s style of play is something every player should take note of. He is always giving 110% effort and never backs down from anyone regardless of his size. Tyler is very excited with his new team role, “It’s an honour and a big responsibility. On the ice my playing style will not change, but off the ice I will be more of a leader and be more supportive of my teammates. I’m really looking forward to this season.”
New alternate captains were also named to support Morley as captain. Erik Cooper, Richard Vanderhoek, and Robert Lindores will round out the leadership group this season.
Morley’s younger brother Brandon has joined the Eagles this season, so look for them to make an impact in the Eagles home opener Friday night at South Surrey Arena.
