(Windsor) The Windsor Spitfires announced today that Chris Marchese has been named the Tecumseh & South Walkerville Vision Centres Player of the Week for the week ending Sunday, February 12th. Marchese had 4 points this week, 3 of those coming in an outstanding performance against his former team the Erie Otters by scoring a goal and adding two assists in a 5-0 Spits win Saturday Night. With those 4 points Marchese has now pushed his season totals to 15 goals and 34 points; 19 of those points were recorded after joining the Spitfires. This is Chris’ third player of the week award since being acquired by the Spitfires on December 13th, 2011.
The 17-year-old Woodbridge native has been a key contributor to the Spitfires since the moment he’s joined the team. Marchese has proven to be the offensive threat that scouts and coaches anticipated he would develop into. His talents have undoubtedly benefited the Spits greatly and will need to be put on full display as they make a playoff push heading into the final stretch of the season.
Great work Chris! Keep it up!
