Rick Gates was a forward for the Golden Eagles from the 2004-2005 season through the 2007-2008 campaign. He had a memorable freshman season with 5 goals, 10 assists and 47 penalty minutes...that last stat highlighting his physical style of play.
Now, Rick is facing a different kind of fight as his wife Leah was diagnosed with Leukemia last year at age 37.
Leah's friend has opened a GoFundMe for the Gates family as Leah's medical bills continue to accumulate with all the medical expenses, chemotherapy and the inability to work.
