Scott, who was selected 153rd in the early 6th round, had a tremendous season for the Capital District Selects with over a 92% save percentage. Before this spring's draft, Scott was ranked 11th out of 30 of the top goalies in North America.
Shawn Weller, another CD Select alumni, (2004-2005,) 6'2, 190lb forward coming off an impressive Junior year at Div. 1 Clarkson University leading the team in scoring and to the ECAC Championship, signed a 3 year contract with the Ottawa Senators. During Weller's senior year in high school, Shawn was drafted by Ottawa in the 3rd round while playing for the Capital District Seclects and was of the teams leading scorers.
