Grizzlies Captain Joyce makes college commitment

The Rochester Grizzlies of the North American 3 Hockey League (NA3HL) are proud to announce that Captain Noah Joyce has committed to play college hockey for Midland University.  

Joyce, 20, concluded his junior hockey career after two seasons with the Grizzlies organization, serving as Captain of the Central Division squad during the 2024–25 campaign. The Oakdale, MN native appeared in 91 total games, amassing 68 points on 31 goals and 37 assists.

His standout performance of the season came in a 3–0 cross-divisional win over the Alexandria Blizzard, where he dominated the scoresheet, scoring the game’s opening and eventual winning goal, then assisting on the other two tallies.

A key leader both on and off the ice, Joyce was chosen to represent the Grizzlies at the 2025 Top Prospects Tournament in Plymouth, MI, where he skated with Team White and notched one goal.

Joyce is the one of four players from the Grizzlies to make a college commitment this season.
