“I am thankful to have played along side great players, coaches and opponents that have helped me prepare and get to where I am today. The NAHL has helped me develop and expose me to NCAA schools. It’s been a great ride with the Wilderness organization and I can’t thank them enough for all they have done. I’m excited to be a Black Bear,” said Lindelow.
