Words from Jared:

I have had a passion for hockey my whole life. It is my love of the sport and my determination that have allowed me to travel across the world playing hockey and meeting others with the same values. 

As I’ve supported the coaching staff by working with the youth programs, these varied experiences with other teams and other cultures have given me insight into not only how I learn and train but also how others learn and train.  

I’ve worked on the coaching staff in Turnhout Belgium, Osby Sweden, Auckland New Zealand, Istanbul Turkey, and Secmol School Leh Ladakh in the Himalayas. 

I hope that I will be able to continue playing, learning, and sharing my passion for hockey with others around me.

Kevin Sadovski is a defenseman, he considers himself a two-way defenseman. He focuses on playing defense first and being responsible in the defensive end, but when the play transitions he likes to jump up in the rush and be involved offensively. He believes that using skating ability and also having a good defensive stick is very hard to play against.

He likes to focus on both sides of the puck whether it’s offense or defense.

Kevin played 5 Years of Junior Hockey in the Northeast, before joining Merrimack College. His last season of Junior Hockey was 2019-2020, he spent it in Utica, for the Utica Jr Comets in the USPHL NCDC. He was the captain of the Jr. Comets.
