Cover committed to Penn State in April. He spent most of his childhood playing roller hockey while growing up in the Cayman Islands. He did not start playing ice hockey until he was 13 but quickly developed into a top NHL wing prospect. In his first full season with the London Knights, he tallied 52 points (20 goals, 32 assists) in 67 games. He is projected to spend one more season in the OHL before joining Penn State in 2027.

Congratulations Jaxon!
