O’Kane tribute set for Wednesday

Bishop Eustace Prep's ice hockey team will host the "Conor O'Kane Tribute Game" at 3 p.m. Wednesday at the Flyers Skate Zone in Pennsauken.

O'Kane, 19, was a 2009 Bishop Eustace graduate who played ice hockey for the Crusaders. He was a sophomore playing club ice hockey for La Salle University when he died Jan. 15 after collapsing at home.

There will be a ceremony in O'Kane's memory before the game against Gloucester Catholic. Players from all four South Jersey ice hockey teams – Bishop Eustace, Gloucester Catholic, St. Augustine, and Paul VI – will wear helmet stickers in tribute to O'Kane for the rest of the season.
