The Florida Eels announce its 282nd College Commitment as TJ Zebley commits to FGCU ACHA Div. II team.
TJ is one of the most talented players who ever suited up for the Florida Eels.
The Florida Eels announce its 282nd College Commitment as TJ Zebley commits to FGCU ACHA Div. II team.
We are so excited that TJ committed to Florida Gulf Coast University. It is his hometown college hockey team. TJ is one of the most talented players who ever suited up for the Florida Eels. He comes from Philadelphia PA and plays with the heart and sole of the original Flyers. TJ has excellent skill set. A very strong skater. Great vison. A gifted scorer with incredible hands. . Indeed, Coach Scarpaci coins him as a sniper. He has scored so many clutch goals over his career. In 163 games, he scored 89 Goals in the USPHL. He notched 131 Assists for 220 points. So many game winners. He is stealth like and is so difficult to play against. As lethal as he is offensively, he is equally strong as defensive center. He simply shuts opposing players down. It makes him so valuable to any college program as he is so effective on special teams.
GM Scarpaci echoes, that throughout his tenure with the Eels, Zebley was one player college coaches consistently called about. This does not come as a surprise, comments GM Scarpaci. . The college coaches readily saw TJ was a true leader on both the Eels Premier and Elite teams. He was bestowed assistant Captain on each of his Eels teams. TJ had so many NCAA college opportunities. But this young man knew what he wanted, and he had his sights set on FGCU academic program and he also knew how strong FGCU’s hockey program was. They have won so many National titles. He will be a value asset to their program as he was to the Eels.
TJ is a high character individual who comes from an incredible family. Who has strong integrity with tremendous dedication and determination. He plays with the unwavering commitment to win. We wish him the best in his college career; we know he will make us proud.
Eels Announce Their 3rd Major Signing in the Past 3 Days: The Eels are excited to announce the re-signing and return of 5’8” 150 lbs. veteran forward Easton Moore from Alberta Canada.
FlORIDA EELS SIGNING ALERT
The Eels are excited to announce the re-signing and return of 5’8” 150 lbs. veteran forward Easton Moorefrom Alberta Canada. Moore brings a plethora of experience and depth to the Eels lineup. Premier Coach Frank Scarpaci notes, “Moore has the heart of a lion. He is relentless in all aspects of his game. He has very strong skill set. A solid skater. Excellent vision. Has a high hockey IQ”
Coach Scarpaci adds he can score. He is shifty and not afraid to get into the dirty areas. Some players shy away from those areas because of the price and pain you pay. Not Moore. Look at his goal production. With the Eels he scored 21 goals and notched 42 helpers. Previously in Canada he tallied 52 goals and garnered 49 assists. You don’t capture those numbers by being passive or complacent. He is hungry and has the thirst and appetite to score and does what he must get the puck to the net. Simply put Easton plays with such unwavering determination and commitment to win.
GM Scarpaci echoes, I love Moore’s work ethic and character. He comes to practice early or stays after practice shooting at least 150 pucks per day. He is always there to help other teammates. His dedication is contagious. He is a true team guy. He works on so many little things to improve his game whether watching videos or extra time in tine gym to make him stronger. Some players settle for “enough” Not Moore…. He demands MORE from himself and others. That is the Eels attitude. He shares the mission of this team. We have unfinished business to attend to this year and he is coming in with that in mind. This young man bleeds Black Green and White…. Welcome back Easton we are proud to have you.
