His leadership, tenacity, and willingness to do the little things that help a team win have made him a cornerstone of the program.
“Owen has been the heartbeat of our team. His leadership, compete level, and passion for the game are second to none. He has left a lasting impact on our program, and we are incredibly proud to see him continue his hockey career at the next level,” said Kodiaks General Manager Eric Kroetch. “Augustana is getting a player who will not only contribute on the ice but will also bring leadership and a strong work ethic to their program.”
Lansing now joins a respected Augustana Vikings program that has a long history of success in the ACAC. By staying in Camrose, he will continue to play in front of family, friends, and the local community that has supported him throughout his hockey journey.
