This season SFU Hockey bids good bye to six senior players: Mike Ball, Jono Ceci, Jared Eng, Tyler Mah, Andrew Parent, and Nick Sandor. We asked them to review their time at Simon Fraser University – On and off the ice.

• Favourite Team Memory: Playing the University of North Dakota last January
• What’s Next? Ball is currently evaluating job opportunities with consulting firms. On the ice, he hopes to get involved with coaching and scouting at the Junior level.

Jono Ceci

Number 91 inspired the #CeCiwatch hashtag this season after taking the all-time SFU points lead, and climbing the ranks of the BCIHL record book as well.

After 85 games over four seasons, Ceci racked up 145 points, including 55 goals in the regular season, plus another 10 playoff points, with more to hopefully come next month.
