Bobcats and Gulls Represent at New York Islander Camp
by mary malvagna posted 07/14/2010
 



 



 


The NY Bobcats and LI Gulls were well represented at the New York Islanders developmental camp, being held during the week of July 6-12 th at the Nassau Coliseum on Long Island. The Bobcats and Gulls had 5 alumni attend the camp: Matt Mangene from Manorville attending Maine, Mike Marcou from Kings Park attending UMass Amherst, Dan Markowitz from Jericho attending Dartmouth, Steven Schultz from Westbury attending Colorado College, and Zak Stone from Roslyn attending Northeastern. These players received the invitation because they are among the top prospects from Long Island and were awarded the opportunity to showcase their skills in front of the entire Islander organization. They joined several of the Islander draft picks and prospects, including 2010 Entry Draft picks Nino Niederreiter (5 th overall) and Brock Nelson (30 th overall) in the camp.

Each year, the Islander organization holds this week long minicamp for their top prospects and current year draft picks, as well as several players from local area junior teams and colleges. This year, the organization invited 40 players, with 7 players from the AJHL. "The entire Bobcats/Gulls organization are proud of these alumni. Their hard work and dedication has been rewarded and they have been given the opportunity to showcase their skills in a professional environment", stated NY Bobcats Coach Ed Galiani. He commented that, "The representation of the AJHL in major scouting events like the NY Islanders camp speaks volumes about the progress of our league and its member teams. The NY Bobcats commend our players for their achievements and we foresee a bright future for them and our many top prospects."

O'MACK COMMITS TO BECKER COLLEGE
by mary malvagna posted 06/14/2010
 


SHAWN O’MACK COMMITS TO BECKER COLLEGE
 

The Bobcats are very happy and proud to announce that Shawn O’Mack has committed to the Hawks of Becker College for the upcoming 2010/2011 season.  Shawn will be joining former Bobcat teammates Donny Kane and Mark Lotito, both of whom had very successful freshman campaigns at Becker.  Shawn becomes the eleventh Bobcats player to commit to play college hockey for the 10/11 season.   Becker College is a member of the ECAC Northeast, a twelve-member conference, which boasts some of the strongest Division II and III hockey programs in the country.  On a nostalgic note, the Hawks are coached by Steve Hoar, Dan Marshall’s former coach at Plattsburg State College.  Together, they won a Division III National Championship in 1987. 
 
A strong skating, skilled and tenacious forward, Shawn brought a distinct edge to his game every time he stepped on the ice for the Bobcats.  His physical game was the source of some inopportune injuries during his two-year Bobcats career, but Shawn always found a way to bounce back, showing a tremendous level of perseverance and commitment to always get back on the ice as quickly as possible.  A player who was never afraid to take off the gloves and defend his teammates, Shawn also showed significant offensive potential.  Despite playing in only 40 games this past season, Shawn was able to finish 7thin goals scored on the team with a total of 15, including 4 power play goals.  His goal scoring percentage of .200 was good for 2ndoverall on the team.  He also had a gaudy 56 penalty minutes in those 40 games.  Shawn logged a total of 85 games during his two-year Bobcats Career.  Shawn contributed greatly to the Bobcats success this past season, which culminated in an AJHL regular season title, an appearance in the AJHL Finals and a trip to Marlborough, MA to compete for the Tier III Junior A National Championship.      
 
By way of background, Shawn was an alternate for Team Long Island at the 2007 Empire State Games.  He also played for Team New York at the 2008 Chicago Showcase and was one of the top players for the Suffolk PAL Bantam and Midget Minor teams during the 06/07 and 07/08 seasons, respectively.  Shawn also had a very successful high school hockey career, winning a Suffolk County Varsity Championship with Sachem High School in 08/09 and a Junior Varsity Championship in 05/06.  He also earned Suffolk County All-Star honors in 05/06 and 06/07.  During the 06/07 season, he was the MVP and Assistant Captain for Sachem.  
 
Shawn hopes to major in Physical Education at Becker College and is looking forward to making an immediate impact on the ice.  The Bobcats would like to extend their sincere and heartfelt congratulations to Shawn and the entire O’Mack family, and wishes him the very best as he heads to Becker College to embark on his academic and college hockey career.
