The Atlanta Knights won the USA Hockey Junior A Tier III National Championship on Tuesday afternoon, beating the Long Island (NY) Royals, 4-3, in Rochester, Minn.
Brent Kallio with his trophy.
"It's pretty hard to put my exact emotions into one word," Kallio said after the title game. "It is the craziest feeling of happiness that I've ever had in my life."
Kallio still has one more year of junior eligibility remaining, and he says he may return to Atlanta next year. Or college? "I'm keeping my options open," he said.
