Kingston Voyageurs alternate captain Brody Heleno (photo credit - Tim Bates/OJHL Images) has confirmed his commitment to join the Salem State University Vikings beginning with the 2014-15 MASCAC season.
The Mississauga, Ontario native made his OJHL debut, playing five games as a 16-year affiliate in 2009-10. After spending the 2010-11 season with the Markham Majors Midget 'AAA' squad, Heleno joined the OJHL fulltime in 2011-12 with the Toronto Lakeshore Patriots. He would record three assists during the regular season as a rookie and then another four during 13 post-season contests as the franchise made their first lengthy playoff run, falling to the Whitby Fury in the South-East Conference Championship Series. The following season, Heleno notched his first junior goals, recording three, as well as 12 points in 50 games.
During the off-season, Heleno was moved to the Kingston Voyageurs and helped lead the club to the OJHL regular season title this past season while recording career-highs of 9 goals and 18 points in 51 games played. He added annother seven points during another trip to the Conference Final, this time falling to the Aurora Tigers.
Congratulations to Brody on the commitment and best of luck at Salem State!
