RPI Engineers‘ junior transfer from Mercyhurst University Lakers right wing Austin Heidemann(20) kept on pace scoring despite the level of play maybe going up a notch in ECAC from Atlantic Hockey.
His 10 goals and 10 assists closely match the 12 and 15 he posted last season.
The 6′ 190 lbs. forward plays a power style, effective on the net strikes.
From Maple Grove, MN, the 23-year old will likely only get even better as a senior.
He posts a new best scoring totals with 11 goals and 16 assists in 37 games and signs a 1st pro deal with Worcester Railers to get started as a pro and has 1 goal in 7 games.
For his rookie frame, he will return to wear a Railers‘ uniform and look to up his pro game.
After just a single ECHL game, he is released and quickly gets snapped up by Wichita Thunder, who put him under contract.
