Mavs Acquire Muncy from RGV to Complete Deal


INDEPENDENCE, Missouri – Missouri Mavericks' Head Coach Scott Hillman announced Sunday the Central Hockey League (CHL) club has acquired forward Sean Muncy from the Rio Grande Valley Killer Bees to complete the trade that sent defenseman Dominic D'Amour to the Killer Bees.

Muncy, 26 (1/11/85), was second in scoring on the Killer Bees roster with 31 points on 14 goals and 17 assists, and he will begin his tenure with the Mavericks as the team's leading scorer.   The native of Chesterfield, Missouri (the same hometown of current Maverick Derek Pallardy) will also come to the Mavericks as the team's assist leader (17) and power play points leader with nine (1-8=9).

"We are really pleased to have Sean join our team," said coach Hillman.  "He is another local Missouri product and we are hopeful he will continue his offensive production with the Mavericks."

The 6-foot, 185-pound forward, is currently in his second season of professional hockey having played for the Rio Grande Valley Killer Bees during his rookie season as well.  He was called up to the American Hockey League's Houston Aeros for one game this season.  As a rookie, Muncy had 47 points (14-33=47) in 61 games played and finished fourth on the team in scoring.  In total, Muncy has 78 points (28-50=78) in 98 games for his professional career.

Prior to turning pro, he played four seasons at Brown University where he earned his degree in Economic Sociology.  He earned the highest grade-point average award from Brown during the 2008-09 season.

Prior to his collegiate career, Muncy played three seasons of junior hockey in the USHL where he was awarded the team's Most Valuable Player Award with the Waterloo Blackhawks during the 2004-05 season, and he earned the Community Service Award with the Cedar Rapids Roughriders during the 2003-04 season.

Muncy is not expected to play for the Mavericks until their next home game on Friday, January 21 against the Wichita Thunder at Independence Events Center.  The Mavericks are currently on the road for a pair of games and will take on the Dayton Gems on Monday, January 17 and the Fort Wayne Komets on Wednesday, January 19.
