Hockey stars

Two brothers are taking their talents to the ice, skating their way through national competition as they continue to advance in their hockey careers. David Mora Bernat (pictured, right) and his younger brother, Jack Mora Bernat (pictured, at left), have earned spots on the prestigious Colorado Thunderbirds AAA teams this spring. In addition to their AAA roster spots, the brothers will also compete with the Mountain Select AA teams and the Steamboat Springs A team. The brothers have won tournaments for travel hockey in Colorado, Boston, Chicago, Las Vegas, Nashville, and Minneapolis, and more. The brothers hope to continue climbing through competitive levels, with an eye on future junior and collegiate opportunities. For now, David and Jack are focused on hockey and skating toward what comes next.
