"We've known about Finn since he caught our eye during our first official open camp last summer in New Jersey," said Maryland Black Bears Head Coach Clint Mylymok. "He is a high-character kid that is coming off a championship season at Kent. Finn is a local kid, and his goal has always been to become a Maryland Black Bear to play Junior A hockey close to home. He has earned this opportunity, and we are happy to have him aboard."
Nick Hauck ('01) is a 6', 185-pound Defenseman that was born and raised in Ham Lake, Minnesota. This past season, he played hockey for Blaine High School, scored three goals, and had 28 assists. Nick added another six assists during Blaine's playoff run, capping an impressive season.

"He was a leader on the Bengals and is a young man that brings determination and character to our program. We are excited to bring another great person, and hockey player, to the Maryland Black Bear family."
