Cale Maker shows maturity by deciding to go back to UMass
It has been speculated since his season with the UMass Minutemen ended in early March, but this weekend Cale Makar made it official - he is going back to college for at least one more season.
From the time he was selected 4th overall by the Colorado Avalanche, many assumed that the Brooks Bandits product would be one-and-done in the NCAA. Neither the player nor team had given any indication that this would be the case, but fans of the team had him penciled onto the blueline for opening night of the 2018-19 season.
Now they’ll have to wait another year - at least.
