Recreation
Trevor plays senior league hockey at Troy Sports Arena and Hazel Parks' Viking Arena. Although his team, the Flames, were knocked out early in the 2007 playoffs by the Inn Place, where he straight walked around Patrick Lipa of St. Clair Shores on more than one occasion ,the Flames Fall League team did win the 'C' division and his Fox Sports Net team is a two-time Champion in Hazel Park.
Although quite a good skater, he is not quite as fast as Brett Lebda as of March 20,2008. Trevor is however, most likely a better skater than most honest "C" League hockey competitors.
