Press Release

The British Columbia Hockey League's Salmon Arm SilverBacks are pleased to announce that defenceman Charlie Vasaturo has committed to attend Union College and suit up for the NCAA Division I Dutchmen for the 2011/12 season.

Vasaturo is a Sewell, New Jersey product who recently returned for his second season in Salmon Arm. He enjoyed a successful rookie campaign in the BCHL a year ago, scoring seven times and totalling 26 points while playing in all 60 regular season games. The 20-year old was recently named an Assistant Captain.

Union College is located in Schenectady, New York and competes in the ECAC. Vasaturo will join a number of former BCHLers at the school, including Salmon Arm grad Kelly Zajac and recent All-Star Kyle Bodie.

The SilverBacks would like to congratulate Charlie and his family on this scholarship commitment.
