Spartans get another Lancers goaltender

Omaha Lancers' goaltender Drew Palmisano has committed to Michigan State University for the 2008-2009 season.

The Ann Arbor native has posted an 18-8-4 overall win-loss record thus far this season. He has a 2.84 goals-against average and a .914 save percentage. He currently ranks eighth among USHL goaltenders.

“Drew has been one of the most instrumental players in turning our season around and we're happy for him to able to play at a university like Michigan State,” said Omaha head coach Mike Hastings. “Drew is excited about the opportunity to play so close to home.”

Palmisano is the third Lancer goaltender in recent years to sport the green and white for Michigan State. Dominic Vicari played for the Spartans during the 2003 - 2006 seasons and Jeff Lerg is currently the starting goaltender for the Spartans.
