WEST KELOWNA B.C. – The West Kelowna Junior ‘A’ Hockey Club are excited to announce the commitment of forward Jaiden Moriello (‘03) for the 2022-23 season.
The Saugus, Mass native currently has 28 goals and 11 assists in 25 games played with Kimball Union Academy (USHS-Prep) this season. “We are very excited for Jaiden to join the Warriors family,” said Warriors General Manager & Head Coach Simon Ferguson.”We got a chance to meet and watch him at our Development camp in Boston last summer and continued to follow his progress this season where he was named team captain.” “Jaiden is a power-forward who can score, makes plays and competes at both ends of the ice.”
The 6’2, 190 pound forward considers himself ready for the BC Hockey League. “ I’m really excited to commit to such a great, well respected organization and I can’t wait to be a Warrior,” stated Moriello. “As a player I take pride in my leadership on and off the ice as well as my size and goal scoring ability that goes along well with my higher IQ.”
Moriello is committed to UMass-Lowell (NCAA). The Warriors would like to welcome Jaiden and his family to the City of West Kelowna and the Warriors organization.
Moriello joins multiple new recruits for next season including forwards Tomis Marinkovic and Felix Caron.
The Warriors are back in action Friday when they take on the Penticton Vees. Puck drop from 7pm from the South Okanagan Events Centre in Penticton. Catch the broadcast live on BCHLTV (formally HockeyTV) or stream the game live for free on the Warriors Radio Network (Mixlr).
