Shane Ness
At Dartmouth: Possibly the team's top defensive player, Shane appeared
in all 30 games last season as a sophomore. A physical player, Shane was
paired with Owen Hughes for the majority of last season and the contrasting offense-defense styles of the two complement each other. He tallied
two assists last season, but as a player who isn't afraid to go into the corners or stand up an opponent at the blue line, Shane's presence in the
defensive zone is his strong suit. As a freshman in 1994-95, Shane broke
into the lineup in the second game and appeared in 24 games. He dished
out one assist that year and played a physical style of hockey.
High School: Shane played his junior hockey with the Penticton Panthers. He was captain of his high school squad that won the league championship in 1991-92.
Personal: Shane lists his favorite player as Wayne Gretzky, whom he
once had the good fortune to meet. Shane's favorite things to eat are pizza
and pasta. He enjoys the acting of Al Pacino and lists his favorite movie as
Goodfellas. His most memorable sports moment was scoring on a penalty
shot with one minute to play in a game that propelled his team to first
place in his junior hockey league.
