Boston Bulldogs Head Coach Mike Addesa has announced that Tucker Mullin of Andover, MA and Eric Steinour of Carlisle, PA will be team captains for the 2008 - 09 season.
Steinour, who is entering his third season in the AJHL was acquired by the Bulldogs prior to the 2007-08 from the Hudson Valley Eagles. Addesa said of Steinour, "Eric has grown tremendously during his time in the AJHL in every way a player can: strength, speed, athleticism, skating, shooting." He added "Eric is a person of impeccable character and has so much to offer our young and relatively unexperienced team."
Tucker Mullin is a graduate of Andover High School where he led his team to a State Championship Final. Tucker played a post-graduate season at Phillips Andover last season, but not before a four-game baptism by fire with Bulldogs before the PA season started. Addesa said, "Tucker is a person and player that I've come to know well over the last couple of years." Addesa had seen Mullin play on some out of season teams with other Bulldogs players and then invited him to play with the Bulldogs before the prep school season started. "Like Eric he [Tucker] is a great person of strong character who will offer a lot to a young team".
This looks to be a big season for the leaders of this young Bulldogs club.
