Gostisbehere commits to Union

I picked this information up on the USCHO.com message boards. According to the message boards and Florida Jr Panters.com defenseman and Flordia native Shayne Gostisbehere will be joining the Dutchmen in either the fall of 2011 or 2012. He is a offensive-minded defenseman who has is currently playing at the South Kent School and was recently drafted by Waterloo in the second phase of the USHL draft.

My guess is that he will play his senior season at South Kent and then a year of juniors to bulk up and perfect his game. At this point he's too young and too small to compete at the NCAA Division I level. Maybe if he puts on around 20 pounds he can be like a Mike Schreiber type: a smaller defenseman with great offensive abilities.
