Rhys Sexton '23 Recruiting Profile

Hockey has gripped me as long as I can remember and defines many parts of my life.  My best memories have been made on and off the ice with teammates and best friends.  Hockey is my brotherhood and delivers life lessons every time I interact with the game or its characters.  I believe my fearless work ethic and commitment to hockey, fitness, and academics will lead me to my goal of college athletics.

Hockey is the basis for virtually all my current relationships.  The game has helped me to socialize, form new friendships, and deal with adversity and success.  My hockey motto is success comes with hard work and determination; failure can grab you anytime you lose focus.

I was proud to compete for and earn a roster spot as a Rookie with the Gonzaga Vikings U18 team.  To prepare for U18 competitive hockey, our small group of U15 teammates committed to a strict fitness and weight training program over the past several years under direction of a private coach.

Highlights of my resume include earning an affiliate player spot with the Pinnacle Growlers of the Newfoundland & Labrador Major U18 AAA league.  This league is the highest level of minor hockey in our province, and I am proud of my contributions to the team and skill development.

I anticipate conversations with teams seeking players with my commitment and high compete level delivered in a solid, fast skating, and fearless winger who will contribute to the team on every shift.
