Ryan Barnes, the captain for the Boston Bandits, has committed to Endicott College for the Fall of 2016. In 41 games (regular season and playoffs), Barnes tallied 24 points for the Bandits this season. The Rhode Island native was also honored as the Defensive Star of the Month in January.

"We are thrilled for Ryan and his decision to attend Endicott College," said Bandits head coach Todd Stirling. "Ryan has been one of the most consistent defensemen to ever lace up the skates for the Bandits.  His hard work and dedication to his game, the team, and to our organization has been nothing short of exemplary. We wish him the best of luck in the next chapter of his hockey career."
