The Powell River Kings are proud to announce the commitment of 1998-born Texas native and prep school standout Cameron Donaldson for the upcoming season.
The 5’8’’ 160-pound forward has spent the past two seasons playing at The Gunnery Prep in Connecticut, racking up 43 goals and 39 assists in 60 games. He was far and away the leading scorer at The Gunnery this season with 50 points, becoming the first player to score 50 points in a season since 2009-10. His play helped The Gunney to a staggering 26-7-1 record this season. He is also already committed to play at Cornell University alongside fellow Kings Tristan Mullin and Kyle Betts.
“I’m really excited to create a relationship with those two before we go to college,” Donaldson said. “I’m a small forward but I’m quick and fast. I like to move around, make plays and score some goals. Kent told me he wants me to be really offensive minded and play with speed.”
Kings head coach and general manager Kent Lewis is thrilled to be able to add Donaldson to his lineup for this season.
“It’s simple; skill, speed and feistiness. That’s what we like about him,” Lewis said. “He’s a versatile guy that can play all situations for us.”
Donaldson’s commitment adds to the list of highly-offensive players the Kings have brought in for the 2016-17 season. Kings fans can get their first look at Donaldson, along with the rest of the Kings when the team hits the ice for training camp in August.
