Long Beach Sharks

Head Coach: Jeff Tory (Going on 5th season)

2023-24 season record: 13-33-1-1 (5th in East Division)

2023-24 leading scorer: Nolan Nemecek (37 points)

2024 Playoffs: N/A

2024-25 Division: East Division 

After a year-long battle with injuries, Head Coach Jeff Tory was proud of how his team competed in the East Division throughout the 2023-24 season. With younger players stepping up and playing key minutes that were not anticipated, the Long Beach Sharks were resilient, losing a handful of games by just two-goals or less. As we head into the 2024-25 campaign, Tory will rely on his core group of returning players to keep the resilience going and start the new year off with vengeance, a goal to be one of the top teams in the East.
