Coombs Commits to the University of New Hampshire

The Melfort Mustangs are proud to announce that 2005-born goaltender Kristian Coombs has committed to play NCAA Division 1 hockey with the University of New Hampshire Wildcats for the 2025/2026 Season.

Coombs has spent the past two seasons with the Mustangs, steadily developing into one of the top goaltenders in the SJHL. After appearing in 13 games during his rookie season in 2023–24 and posting a 6-4-0 record, he took a major step forward in 2024–25.

This past season, Coombs was nothing short of outstanding, compiling a 26-6-1 record in 34 appearances, along with four shutouts, a 2.01 goals-against average, and a .926 save percentage. His performance was a key factor in the Mustangs’ success throughout the season.

Kristian’s work ethic and commitment to the team are second to none. The University of New Hampshire is gaining not just a talented netminder but a player who brings professionalism and drive to every aspect of the game.

The entire Melfort Mustangs organization congratulates Kristian and wish him the very best in his NCAA career.
