Saginaw continues to add young talent

The Saginaw Spirit have signed defenseman Alex Lepkowski, a 1993-born prospect that was drafted by the Spirit 66th overall in the 2009 OHL Priority Selection.

The West Seneca, N.Y., native played with St. Francis Prep of the MPHL last season.

“Alex is a young kid that we’re bringing in to develop,” stated Spirit director of scouting Jim Paliafito. “He has tremendous character and he has a lot of upside with his size and skating ability.”

Lepkowski is expected to attend Saginaw’s August training camp.
