The '01 native of Sudbury, MA choose the Chiefs for his first and only season of junior hockey, and through 48 total games in the Eastern Hockey League (EHL), Duffy has notched 24 points to his credit.

"Tim has incredible vision that can’t be taught," said Chiefs head coach and general manager Greg Heffernan. "He is a fantastic young man who will come into his own at Saint A’s. Coach [Larry] Rocha does a great job and I think Tim will be all that he is hoping for over the next 4 years."

Speaking of Coach Rocha, the Head Coach of the Hawks has put together a strong incoming freshmen class for the fall of 2022, one that now includes seven total players from throughout the EHL.

Alongside his current teammate Jack Devine, Duffy will join up with Matt Herrick from the New Jersey 87sWill Rosen from Team MarylandJohn Myers from the New York Apple Core, and Garrett Alberti and Tucker Hanson from the Valley Jr Warriors.

"Thank you to the Chiefs' organization and Coach Heffernan for believing in me throughout the year," said Duffy. "I wouldn’t be where I am today without their support and guiding me through the college process. I can’t thank my former and current teammates, coaches, friends, and most importantly my family enough. I can’t wait to flip to the next chapter in the book, and I'm proud to be a Hawk!”

Duffy and the Chiefs took care of business in their First Round series against the Connecticut RoughRiders, setting up a matchup with the Railers Jr Hockey Club. The Central Division Finals begin on Thursday morning at 11:30 am in Worcester, MA, and the Chiefs will lean on their EHL All-Star who hasn't missed a single game all season.
