Talk to…Trent Frederic

If there’s any place Trent Frederic is at home, it’s on the ice. The De Smet Jesuit High School sophomore plays forward for both the U16 AAA Blues and his high school team. He was ranked second in his age group among St. Louis players by the 2013 U.S. Hockey Report U14 Nationals Review, which also ranks him No. 11 of 60 players in his age group overall.

How old were you when you started playing hockey?
I started playing with the Webster Wings— now called the Webster Rockets—when I was 3 or 4. After that, I played for the Chesterfield Falcons for a year or two, and started playing with the AAA Blues when I was 9 or 10. I’ve been playing with the team ever since.

What do you love about the sport?
I love the speed of the game, going out of town for tournaments and all the friends I’ve made.

What are your biggest strengths?
I’m a two-way player, so I play both offense and defense. I know how to move the puck, and I work hard.

Are there any games you’re particularly proud of?
When I was in seventh grade, I played in a big tournament, the Quebec Pee-Wee Tournament. We beat a team 5-4 in the quarterfinals, and I had three of those goals.

Any goals you’re working toward?
I would like to play college, major league or Canadian hockey.
