Class Of 2020 Prospect Ryan Kirwan Commits To Penn State Hockey

Penn State men’s hockey added another piece to its 2020 recruiting class Wednesday thanks to Ryan Kirwan’s verbal commitment.

Kirwan, 15, won’t join Guy Gadowsky’s program until the 2020-21 season. He played for the USHL’s Syracuse Nationals U-14 team last season. Kirwan scored four goals and added four assists in the World Selects Invitational with the Oshawa Generals U-15 squad earlier this year.

He’s the fifth recruit in Penn State’s Class of 2020, joining defensemen Jarod Crespo and Simon Mack, forward Tyler Paquette, and goaltender Christian Sbaraglia.

The forward possesses natural scoring ability and doesn’t mind doing the dirty work out on the ice. He also has plenty of size, checking in at 6-foot-1 with ample time to bulk up his 154-pound frame before making his Penn State debut in three years.

About the Author

Mikey Mandarino

In the most upsetting turn of events, Mikey graduated from Penn State with a digital & print journalism degree in the spring of 2020. He covered Penn State football and served as an editor for Onward State from 2018 until his graduation. Mikey is from Bedminster, New Jersey, so naturally, he spends lots of time yelling about all the best things his home state has to offer. Mikey also loves to play golf, but he sucks at it because golf is really hard. If you, for some reason, feel compelled to see what Mikey has to say on the internet, follow him on Twitter @Mikey_Mandarino.
