A familiar face around the St. Andrew\u2019s campus could be seen on national television Sunday night in an All-Star uniform.
\nIt may not have been an NHL sweater, with the world\u2019s premier league\u2019s All-Star game going earlier in the afternoon, but Warren Foegele has been impressive enough in his first year with the Charlotte Checkers to earn an American Hockey League All-Star nod.
\nBorn in Markham, Foegele cut his teeth with both the Toronto Nationals and Markham Waxers AAA programs before taking on a varsity role at St. Andrew\u2019s College in Aurora, where he had attended since Grade Six.
\nSuiting up for a slew of games for the Varsity Saints squad as just a sophomore, he led the junior varsity Saints in scoring in 2011-12, before joining the varsity squad in a full-time capacity the following season.
\nHe once again led his team in scoring at over a point-per- game pace, with his scoring prowess and leadership skills combining to warrant an \u2018A\u2019 on his chest in his senior season.
\nLeading the Saints to a CISAA title, Foegele put up an outstanding 87 points in 44 games to attract the attention of some of the American college hockey\u2019s top programs.
\nFoegele credits Saints coach David Manning for helping him flourish into a top-level player.
\nOriginally slated to play junior hockey in the BCHL the following season, he instead chose to graduate and accept a scholarship to the University of New Hampshire, around the same time he was ranked the 66th skater for the upcoming 2014 NHL Draft. That June, the Hurricanes would take him 67th.
\nThree years later, the six-foot-two, 200-lb. left winger is turning heads in his first professional league season, notching twenty goals and twelve assists through only the first 42 games.
\nSunday\u2019s All-Star game, in Utica, New York, saw Foegele suit up for Team Atlantic, leading his team with four assists through the one-day tournament.
\nHe also finished second in the fastest skater competition.
\nAt his current pace, Foegele could see NHL action as early as next season, having the size and experience as a 21-year old.
\n\u201cWarren impressed in rookie camp,\u201d said General Manager of the Carolina Hurricanes, the Checkers\u2019 parent club, Ron Francis upon Foegele\u2019s All-Star selection. \u201cHe deserves the recognition and he\u2019s going to be a big part of our club.\u201d<\/p>\n\"Facebook\"<\/a>\"twitter\"<\/a>\"mail\"<\/a>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
