Is it actually Samuels Thomas or Thomas Samuels??? You know what they say about people with 2 first names.
Ok, jokes aside this kid seems to have the size we're gonna need after the size we have graduated. Is this kid play BG Bobcat Hockey?

A name like "Llew Ncwana" supercedes any hatred of a man's hometown.

No he never played for BGHS. I can see how the area in () could lead to that assumption, but it lists the College signed with and then the most recent/current league-team.

aww...that brought a smile to my face.
Loved LLLLLLEEEEWWW (you have to say it as it was screamed every time he touched the puck!)
Even with his academic shortcomings...Llew gave 110% on the ice, was hard-nosed and was fun to watch.
Anyone know what Llew is up to these days?? He brings back some memories of some hard hitters, considering he shared a team with the MAC TRUCK!
GO FALCONS!

It's cool when something reminds you of yesteryears.
Like every time I get on an Otis elevator.

Plageman?
And I have fond memories of Llew (and Dan Bylsma, etc...) coming to visit our students in Findlay when I was teaching down there! He was really good with the kids and had a great personality!!!!

Matt Truckty was one of the hardest hitters i have saw. He once put steve dickinson thru zamboni doors once during summer pick-up games...mainly because steve slashed my then Jr. high aged brother...
