Tendler Signs with Port Huron Icehawks

Springfield, Mass. - The Port Huron Icehawks announced the signing of American International College senior Jereme Tendler (Viceroy, SK.) to a professional tryout yesterday afternoon. The Ice Hawks are a member of the International Hockey League. They currently sit in second place and are looking to extend a four game winning streak when they take on the first place Fort Wayne Komets this evening. Tendler is slated to make his professional debut.

In his four years with AIC, Tendler twice led the squad in scoring (2005-2006, 2006-2007). He finished his final collegiate season this year, grabbing a Third-Team All-Conference spot with 10 goals and 11 assists.

In all, he totaled 87 points off of 49 goals and 38 assists as a constant on the first-line of the Yellow Jacket attack. In 2006-2007, a junior at the time, Tendler notched eight multi-point games and led the team in scoring, power-play goals and game-winners.

Tendler will be reunited with former Yellow Jacket defensemen Jeremy Leroux, who signed with the Ice Hawks after his senior season, last year.
