“We are very happy for Zander and his family on his commitment to play at Western University next season. Not only was Zander a key player for our team, he was also someone the younger players looked up to and was a great role model. His ability to score timely goals was matched by an infectious love for the game, community, his billets and his teammates. We thank Zander for his time in Collingwood and are looking forward to following his hockey journey at Western.” – Andrew Campoli, Head Coach
“I’m extremely grateful to have played for the Collingwood Blues and appreciate everything the organization has done for me during my time there. My experience in Collingwood is something I’ll never forget. From the boys, to the staff, my billets, and the entire community, it was a special place to finish my junior career. Both as a player and a person, I’ve grown tremendously, and I owe a lot of that to the environment I was surrounded by. The culture in Collingwood truly pushed me to reach beyond what I thought I was capable of, ultimately helping me earn my commitment to Western University. I couldn’t be more excited to start this next chapter and I’m looking forward to getting started at Western!” – Zander Veccia
We’ll be cheering you on at Western, Zander! Congratulations on your commitment. 🎉
