The Yellowstone Quake of the NA3HL are pleased to announce that forward Tony Dahlberg, 20, has committed to play ACHA Division I hockey for Robert Morris University-IL.

He also had 6 points in 9 playoff games as he led his team to the Frontier Division championship and a spot in the 2017 NA3HL Silver Cup Championship.

 

“We are excited for Tony to move on with his hockey career while getting his education. He plays the type of game that lends itself well to the team he is playing for and opponents don’t like playing against. He has worked very hard throughout the last two seasons for the Quake and we wish him the best of luck forward,” said Quake head coach Ryan Theros. 

 

Dahlberg played in the NA3HL for two seasons with the Quake. In 84 career NA3HL games, he recorded 95 points.
