FHS' Paterson featured in "Boys Hockey: Players to Watch in 2022-2023"

Via HockomockSports.com we share the "Boys Hockey: Ten Players to Watch on 2022-2023." Ben Paterson is featured for Franklin. We provide the link to the full listing of Players to Watch.


BEN PATERSON, JUNIOR – FRANKLIN
"Last year’s sophomore class turned out to be prolific in front of goal and Paterson was one of the players that had a breakout performance in 2021-22. Even facing some of the state’s top teams, Paterson was second on the team in points (seventh-best in the league) with 10 goals and 14 assists. 
He has the skills on the puck to find little spaces in the opposition defense and the willingness to go into the corners and battle to keep possessions alive, which is a key component of returning head coach Chris Spillane’s system. The desire to get to the crease and the ability to pick the top corner from outside the face-off dot makes Paterson a constant thorn in the opposition’s side. His speed in the transition and quick release shot make him a threat as soon as he gets to the blue line. 
The Panthers have high expectations, as always, and the deep class of forwards that broke into the lineup last season could provide the firepower to keep Franklin atop the Kelley-Rex division."
