Day Inks One-Year Deal With AHL’s Lehigh Valley Phantoms

LEHIGH VALLEY PHANTOMS SIGN ENDICOTT'S LOGAN DAY

BEVERLY, Mass. – Former Endicott men's ice hockey student-athlete Logan Day (Seminole, Fla.) has signed a one-year contract with the Lehigh Valley Phantoms of the American Hockey League (AHL).

Day, who is the first student-athlete in program history to sign a pro contract, will enter his third season in the AHL this winter, but first with the Philadelphia Flyers minor league affiliate. 

Prior to today's signing, Day played in 122 career games for the Bakersfield Condors of the Edmonton Oilers organization. During that span, Day compiled 52 career points (15G, 37A).

Highlights from his AHL career, so far, include his 34-point (7G, 27A, +14, 64 games) rookie campaign (2018-19) in which he led all Condors' defensemen in scoring. 

Meanwhile, this past season, Day compiled 16 points (6G, 10A, 48 games) in an injury shortened year.

Day, the first-ever defenseman to win Commonwealth Coast Conference (CCC) Player of the Year honors in 2017-18, ended his career at Endicott as the program's No. 2 all-time leading scorer and top-scoring defenseman behind 78 points (30G, 48A) in 56 career games (2016-18).

His other accolades in a Gulls' sweater include two appearances on the Joe Concannon Award list, highlighted by his finalist appearance in 2016-17, one All-America selection, one All-Region honor, two All-Conference First Team laurels, and one Academic All-Conference award.

As a program, Endicott has produced eight professional hockey players since its first NCAA varsity season in 2015-16. Day represents the pinnacle of those eight players with his ascendance to the AHL ranks.
