Xander Boatman '25 Recruiting Profile

I have been playing for 12 years, I've played travel for 10 years. I play in any forward position. My primary position is center. But I will play anywhere my coach tells me. June 24th-26th was my last youth hockey tournament.

I’m a hard worker and team player. I’m always trying to get better. I’m the player who will never give up on a play or game no matter the score.

I started hockey when I was 4. I heard about it at 3 from a friend but I wasn't able to play until I was 4. My parents have been with me every step of my career the whole time and will always be there.I started playing hockey in the Quad Cities, but I felt like I had another level in me so I went to play for Cedar Rapids. Now I feel like I’m doing better than ever and getting better everyday. I’m putting up better stats and have been getting stronger since. I’ve finished my first season of high school hockey, and it was  rocky season but looking to improve.
