The Annual Liberty Bell games in Wayne, NJ, featured a Prospects Division with eight teams of players ranging from 2008 to 2010 birth years. Players were selected to participate by a terrific Liberty Bell Staff. Team Independence defeated William Penn in the Championship Game 3-1. Goalie Aidan Wright was named MVP. The event was USA Hockey-sanctioned and featured four officials, with goals and assists announced to music and played at a high level of hockey. The eight teams played each other three times, plus a playoff game on Sunday. In this report, we highlight 64 players who stood out in these four games only. Grades are based on others in this evaluation, and all did very well to make this report.
Note: Team Lincoln had jerseys with numbers that were difficult for our Scout to see, which is why we have only a few players from that team.
