Spence King 387 Posted November 24, 2020 Share Posted November 24, 2020 Philadelphia, PA – Philadelphia Reapers Head Coach/GM @DMaximus& Assistant GM Spence King announced today that DARIUS MARIMOTO @dariusmarimotoman has been named the longest tenured captain in Reapers franchise history*(Not all Data available) continuing to wear the C for his THIRD season in Philly . Along with returning for his 3rd season in Philly before going pro vet and top Reapers draft pick in S74 a MAJOR…MAJOR part of our leadership group and has been since stepping in the locker room, CARSON WALKERS @Cwalker, last week the Reapers roster held a vote in regards to who they believe have been and are consistently contributing to the discord LR and being great role models for all team members. The results of the poll were VERY tight with a FIVE way tie, obviously leaving our front office with some tough decisions to make in regards to who will be our on ice leadership group in S75, without further a due after very long and hard-fought consideration, JACOB CARSON @jacobcarson877, and ADDISON MCLAREN @tcookie25 will each serve as alternate captains. "Since I arrived in Philadelphia four seasons ago, we have been blessed with a tremendous amount of leadership on our roster," said King. "Darius has grown up within that environment and evolved into someone who not only plays his best hockey when it matters the most, but who also leads by example off the ice. He knows what it takes to win and his performance in our recent playoff runs reflects that. Most importantly, Darius has the respect of his teammates and we're extremely proud to name him as the Longest tenured captain of the Philadelphia Reapers." “As an organization we are excited to finalize our leadership group today and feel that all four players, led by Marimoto, as well as guys like Robert Bouchard, Bob Tristan Robin Galante Nilsson and so many more all truly exemplify and understand what it is expected of a Reaper” stated Assistant GM Spence King. "We have a great blend of talent and experience amongst these three players who will work amongst Darius as alternate captains," said King. "Two of these players are previous captains in the minors for 3 seasons now and we feel this group is a reflection of our team's identity and their leadership will be counted on both on the ice and in the community. Our team poll speaks for itself our locker rook is loaded with leaders even our S76 Rookies are verging the role of captain and will more than soon be wearing letters themselves" Marimoto- is in his third season with the Reapers after being selected by the club nearing the end of the 5th round during the S73 VHLM Dispersal draft. The eighteen year old native of the country of Japan is one of five Reapers scoring at a pace over a point per game and Darius is averaging +1 assists each GP. Last season the 6.01, 205-lb winger was named to the S74 Team Asia Roster for the WJHC. Last year he notched a 74 point campaign, putting up back to back 30 goal seasons. “It feels great. Being the captain of such a talented and promising team is something you dream of. This dream became reality for me. I can’t wait to see how the season plays out, and hopefully playoffs. Let’s go Reapers.” said Marimoto. Walkers- is also entering his 3rd season with the Reapers. Two Season ago the veteran sniper was selected in the 2n Round of the S74 VHL Entry Draft by the Malmo NightHawks.

Doubling his single season "I’m honored that DMax and Spence continue to place their trust in to help lead the team to playoffs. I’m also excited to help Darius lead the team."- Quoted Carson Walkers Jacob Carson- a giant in between the pipes, a native of Location Uknown (Canada), is in his second season with the Reapers. Originally a 4th Round Selection of the club in S74, The 3rd and final player selected by the reapers in that round Starting off S75 capped at 250 looking towards and sitting with a an amazing above 900SV% after 9 games He would then go on to almost go undrafted in the S74 VHL draft before Calgary selected in the final round 62nd Overall, 7th last pick of the entire draft.
