Frank Fedorjaka on Collett: "John is entering his second year as a starter and is a very smart player who knows the defense well. He is extremely versatile, with an ability to guard big, strong guys and small, quick guys. We can match him with any style player. He stays on the field on all of our clears and has become a very physical, solid Division I defender."
