An athletic player that has been on the radar of Bandits Jr A coaching staff for many years. Brady finished his rookie season with 3 points and 55 penalty minutes, showing that even as a rookie he has no problem throwing his weight around. In his sophomore year, Brady will be looked to even more as defense transition is a key to the Bandits’ success, which Brady’s hard hitting style forces more turnovers than most.
