Item History & Price
| Reference Number: Avaluer:5427713 | Country/Region of Manufacture: United States |
Offered for sale is a nice game worn jersey from the Air Force Falcons hockey team. This jersey is one of dozens that we recently acquired which were in storage for nearly a decade and are now being made available for the first time. This jersey is from the home / white set which was used 2008-09. Produced by Gemini, one of the true innovators of jersey manufacturers, this jersey incorporates pro quality features such as double layer shoulder yokes, reinforced elbows, sewn ...multi-layer twill cresting and numbers. The Atlantic Hockey patch is sewn on the right chest and the Gemini logo is embroidered directly to the left chest. The cresting and numbers are multi-layer sewn twill material. The nameplate (original, never removed) is single color twill sewn to a nameplate which is in turn sewn to the jersey. (Finding an AF jersey with the original nameplate still attached is fairly rare.)This jersey was worn by #8, Scott Kozlak. Kozlak was a sophomore on one of Air Force's most memorable seasons. After capturing the regular season Atlantic Hockey title, the cadets swept to an Atlantic Hockey Tourney Championship with a two shutout wins over Bentley (3-0) and Mercyhurst (2-0). They advanced to the NCAA tourney where they posted a third consecutive goose egg, shutting out #3 ranked Michigan 2-0 in the Semi-Final. The Falcons season would come to an end the following night, losing to #11 Vermont in double overtime 3-2 in the East Regional Final. Kozlak played in all 41 games that season (5 goals 10 assists) and was a regular for the Falcons appearing in 149 games during his four years at Air Force scoring 54 points. The jersey is tagged as size 52. (Please note that Gemini jerseys run larger than other manufacturers. The physical size of this jersey is similar to those commonly tagged as 54 or 56 by other brands.) Feel free to ask any questions and please see my other listings for more great jerseys.Photo credits: www.johnsonsjerseys.net
