JAY AHEARN – Johnstown Tomahawks

East Division Star of the Week: Jay Ahearn, Forward, Johnstown Tomahawks

Johnstown Tomahawks forward Jay Ahearn, 19, exploded for huge offensive weekend as the Tomahawks picked up a weekend home sweep of the Northeast Generals. The 5’11/180 lbs. native of Staten Island, NY, had eight points in the two wins, which included four points each night. On Thursday, Ahearn posted two goals and two assists in an 8-0 win. On Friday, he recorded a hat-trick, including the game-winning goal and added an assist in a 6-0 win. His 23 points are currently 2nd on the Tomahawks roster. “Jay was really on his game this week helping us pick up two wins coming out of our break. He played with a purpose each shift and showed what he is capable of with five goals and assisting on three others. He has been great for us all season long and we are looking forward to more to come from him, and hopefully a well-deserved NCAA Division 1 commitment,” said Tomahawks head coach Mike Letizia.
