Arizona products Strick, Tamburo garner monthly awards from USPHL

 

The USPHL has announced its November player of the month awards, with two standouts from Arizona taking home individual honors.

Bold City Battalion forward Brett Strick is a Florida Premier Division Forward of the Month and Islanders Hockey Club goalie Tagger Tamburo is the New England Elite Division Goaltender of the Month.

It’s Strick-ly business in Jacksonville, as the ‘03 from Goodyear, a second-year USPHL Premier veteran, put up two goals and five assists for seven points to tiw for the team lead for the month for the 4-0 Battalion. Strick also tied for the team lead with a plus-5 rating.

For this season, he had 21 points in 17 games entering December, after putting up 23 points in 42 games last season.

Back home, Strick skated for the Arizona Bobcats, VOSHA Titans, and Cactus Shadows High School.

Tamburo, a 2004-born Phoenix native, put together a 2-1-1-0 month for the Islanders, including a massive 21-shutout against the division-leading Northern Cyclones. He made 98 saves on 104 shots in 241 minutes for a .942 save percentage.

Tamburo, who last played for Desert Vista High School, is 8-3-2-0 with a 1.92 GAA and a .926 save percentage on the season.

In addition to Desert Vista, Tamburo also played for the Jr. Coyotes, Bobcats, and DYHA.
