My name is
Zach Pease and I’m from Toronto, Ontario. Last year I played Jr. 'A' hockey for the Kirkland Lake Gold Miners. I have come to Fredonia to study
Psychology and to play varsity hockey for the Blue Devils.
This is my
seventh year way from home, and unexpectedly I was nervous thinking
about starting my first year of university. I loaded my truck and I
headed down to Fredonia solo. Upon arriving I unpacked, settled in and
started my next chapter of my life. I am really enjoying my time at
Fredonia. The hockey is faster and physical as compared to Jr. A hockey.
It is a good challenge and I can truly say after a few days I was back
to feeling comfortable. The facilities and the change room are great. I
am quickly learning the importance of balancing my time. I am looking to
balance my academics, my on and off ice workouts, and my social life.
Everything in balance. Everybody on the team and on the campus are very
friendly and very easy to get along with. Our team went to the men's
soccer game Friday
night and really like the idea that the boys put together of the Blue
Crew ‘Athletes Supporting Athletes’. We had a great turnout for the
first night. I am looking forward to see a good student section when
hockey starts up!
After putting in a good amount of work Saturday
morning with the Bingham's for our Senior Citizen Workday, I left to go to Toronto for two days to
celebrate my birthday yesterday. It was nice to see my family and
friends again for a short visit.
Thanks for
reading. Can’t wait to step on the ice for the first game and get this
year going. We’re going to have a good hard working team!
