Peoria Rivermen rookie center shines as SPHL Player of the Week

Peoria Rivermen rookie center Will Redick, 24, scored two goals and added two assists in Friday's game against Pee Dee, leading his team to a victory at Carver Arena. This marked his first two professional goals and further cemented his status as a standout player. Born in Wasaga Beach, Ontario, Redick played the previous four seasons at NCAA Div.-III Plymouth State University, where he amassed 72 goals and 85 assists in 97 career collegiate games.

In his sophomore year, Redick led all NCAA Div.-III scorers with 27 goals and added 31 assists, a national-best 2.15 points per game. The Peoria Rivermen, who will host two-time defending SPHL champions in a rematch on Saturday, will look to maintain their winning streak with a three-game weekend starting Friday.
