Planning to prepare for college hockey is complicated and simple at the same time. The position of goal tending is 100% mental and staying focused can be a task at hand its self. I have made many changes in my off ice training to prepare for this year and the rest of my time here at Northland College. In doing so I have added more cardio and core based workouts in my routine and have put down the heavy weights. I want to continue to push myself and the players around me to their best with speed, angles, and agility. These skills and attributes are key at this level. As the only rookie goaltender on the team I have a prime opportunity to work as hard as I can and earn that number one spot as I feel I deserve. Stay humble, stay motivated, stay hungry, and most importantly stay grateful.

Dax Deadrick: Northland College Commitment
I have recently committed to Northland College in Ashland WI. This has been a huge milestone in my career from any others in the past. I originally committed to the defending national champions, Williston State College NJCAA back in May. With many changes going on with the coaching staff and myself I was able to get the call up in July. Coach Seamus Gregory has given me the opportunity to compete at the next level here in Ashland for the Lumberjacks. The Lumberjacks are a national collegiate hockey team competing in the Northern Collegiate Hockey Association. The competition is highly skilled at this level and for a goaltender like myself that comes with many changes.
