About the Warriors

Waterloo has a balanced scoring attack, and forwards Daniel Perigo, Keigan Goetz, Zac Coulter, Nick Halagian and Michael Siddall are all offensive threats. Rearguards Mike Moffat and Eric Diodati are mainstays on defence. In goal, returning starter Mike Moffat is the incumbent, but he could be pushed by freshman Trevor Martin for playing time this season.
