Ninth-grader Donovan McClellan, of Bordentown City, competed with his hockey team, Team Comcast AAA 2000’s, to win the NHL Youth Cup Tournament in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. Part of an annual three-day event from Dec. 12-14, the Tournament was hosted by the Pittsburgh Penguins this year, and games were played at Robert Morris University’s Island Arena. Robert Morris is a Division I NCAA school.

The NHL-sponsored event featured ice hockey’s most iconic trophy, the Stanley Cup, as a special honor.

McClellan has been on the ice since he was only 3-years old and started playing competitive travel ice hockey when he was 4. He has attended Doane Academy in Burlington City since Kindergarten.
