Recruiting is never boring when covering the Badgers as Defenseman and Mosinee native Chase Drake will be joining the Badgers in 2010. Todd had a quick blog post on it and a nice article.
Chase is ranked #136 by NHL Central Scouting so add him to the LONG list of Badgers recruits and a player who could very well be drafted next month.
Chase will play the next two seasons for the Green Bay Gamblers, so I should get to see him play several times, as I will be making an attempt to attend games at the Resch to specifically watch recruits starting next season.
Great choice Chase and look forward to seeing you in Madison in 2010!!!
Edit: Andy Baggot has things to add, and it appears Chase was being pursued by CC, Notre Dame, Princeton and Yale.
Another Edit: Baggot has even more to add. Including this comment, "While playing the next two years for the Gamblers, Drake plans to take science courses at UW-Green Bay that will give him a leg up on his pre-med studies at UW."
