As many know, we have a cancer survivor on our team. Forward, Eric Tien has a story that is extremely inspiring. If you did not see the interview with Eric that was on WTAJ the link is HERE and the article from the official NAHL site is HERE.
We are proud to have someone who is such an amazing hockey player as well as such an inspiring human being on our team. He keeps a good attitude about it now, just as he managed to do even while he was fighting the cancer. We are glad that he is now cancer free and also proud to have him on our team as a Johnstown Tomahawk!
