Machine's John commits to D-III Tufts

The Motor City Machine announced today that second-year defenseman Trevor John will be a member of the Tufts Jumbos hockey squad in the fall.

John made an official recruiting visit to Tufts this past week and was very excited about making a formal commitment on Thursday.

Tufts, a member of the NESCAC conference and located near Boston, is presently 7-7-1 on the season. Ranked 28th by US News and World Report (tied with Wake Forest) academically, Tufts is home to the oldest graduate school in international relations.

John, a 20-year-old Grosse Pointe native, is the second commitment from the Machine this year, joining goalie Joe Rogers (Marysville) who will be off to Notre Dame next season.
