When the Red Deer, Alta., product wrapped up his WHL career at the end of the 2022-23 campaign with the Prince Albert Raiders, he was hoping to find a way to stay in Saskatchewan. Sorensen played two seasons with the Raiders from 2021 to 2023 with his final 20-year-old season being the most memorable. In the 2022-23 campaign, the steady forward appeared in 64 regular season games with the Raiders posting 25 goals, 28 assists and a plus-five rating in the plus-minus department.
Before his WHL days began, Sorensen spent three seasons at the Athol Murray College of Notre Dame in Wilcox, Sask., playing for that school’s hockey programs from 2016 to 2019.
When the University of Saskatchewan Huskies Men’s Hockey Team came calling following the completion of his WHL career, Sorensen elected to join the storied U Sports program.
“I love Sask (Saskatchewan),” said Sorensen, who is majoring in Agriculture and Bioresources. “I just wanted to be a Dog.”
