The Janesville Jets, proud members of the North American Hockey League (NAHL), are pleased to announce that Assistant Captain Murray Marvin-Cordes has committed to play NCAA Division III hockey for Gustavus Adolphus College.
“Committing to Gustavus was an exciting moment for me and my family,” Marvin-Cordes said. “The staff were really welcoming and helpful throughout the process that led to me committing there.”
Marvin-Cordes recently completed his third season in the NAHL and his second with the Janesville Jets. In 59 games, he recorded 9 goals and 35 assists for 44 points. He was also selected to compete in the NAHL Top Prospects Tournament, this past February.
From his on-ice abilities to his character off the ice, Marvin-Cordes has been a well-rounded and valuable member of the Jets organization.
“Murray is an incredible teammate and a very skilled player that plays with an unmatched intensity,” head coach Lennie Childs said. “He plays like he is 6 feet tall. He was a catalyst for our group every night and a leader through and through.”
As he reflects on his junior hockey career, Marvin-Cordes credits his time in Janesville for helping prepare him for this next chapter.
“Playing in Janesville the last two years really helped my game and confidence, not only as a player, but as a leader and a member of the Janesville community,” Marvin-Cordes said. “Janesville is a special place and it prepared me in more ways than one for this next step.”
Congratulations to Murray Marvin-Cordes on your commitment!
