Soo Indians sign local lad
Hard working forward Madden Glavota has signed with the AAA Under 18 Soo Indians of the Michigan Amateur Hockey Association ahead of the ’25-26 season.
With a November 20, 2008 birth date, the Sault Ste. Marie, Ontario product returns to his home base after playing the ’24-25 season with the Great North Under 18 Hockey League champion Sudbury U18 Wolves.
A gritty forward who stands in at 5 foot 10, 170 pounds, Glavota has deep hockey bloodlines through his dad, John Glavota.
The elder Glavota was a hard rock defenseman for the powerhouse Soo Legion AAA midget squad of the early 1990s before going on to play two years of junior hockey in midwestern Ontario followed by four seasons at Laurentian University in Sudbury. An overachiever, “starac” Glavota then toughed it out for nine seasons at the minor pro level in various outposts before the ultimate honour of playing for the Croatian National Team.
