The Louisiana Drillers of the NA3HL, would like to announce the re-signing of Mason Wilbur for the 2022-23 season.
Mason is coming of a strong rookie season that had him scoring 11 goals while adding 19 assists for 30 points in 47 games. “Mason definitely started to figure things out as the season went on, he scored 19 of his 30 points in the last 24 games,” stated coach Weingartner, he went on to say “Mason is another one of those players that you love to get back for a second year, his work ethic is contagious and he can play in all situations. He is a stronger player that compliments the players around him, he’s able to do the dirty work in the corners and in front of the net but also has a good offensive touch. We are going to expect him to pick up right where he left off last year, being a leader on and off the ice, while instilling his work ethic and compete level during practice and games. Mason was also instrumental in bringing in previously announced Cooper Boyle and Austin Manns as well as soon to be announced players Kody Genz and Nic Clark, all Alaskan natives.” Prior to joining the Drillers last season, Mason had two solid seasons at the high school level in Alaska, playing for North Pole High School, scoring 42 points over 2 seasons on 19 goals and 23 assists in 37 games.
