GLENS FALLS - The Adirondack Thunder, proud ECHL affiliate of the New Jersey Devils and Utica Comets, have announced that the club has re-signed defenseman Pierson Brandon for the 2025-26 season.
Brandon, 25, finished his final collegiate season in 2024-25 with NCAA (D1) UMass-Lowell where he served as the team's captain and totaled eight points (6g, 2a) in 34 games with the River Hawks. Brandon was signed by Adirondack late last season to retain his rights while rehabbing from injury.
