Senior Profile - Nick Gournis

Hockey has been my favorite hobby since I was very young. I began skating at 2 years old. I found my inspiration at a young age from Blackhawks stars such as Patrick Kane and Johnathon Toews. Some of my favorite hockey experiences came from playing with the Chicago Blues and Chicago Bulldogs. My favorite hockey experience however (up to this point in time as we have State playoffs coming up) came from winning the Illinois West Cup for Maine hockey last year. Hockey has taken me to places across the country and to other countries which I am eternally grateful for. It has also allowed me to meet a wide range of people while teaching me lessons that I will carry with me in my future endeavors. After graduation from Maine South, I plan to continue my academic and athletic career at a four year university.
