In his first year of Bantam AAA he had the most goals scored on his team, his second year he was ranked top ten for the most goals in Alberta with 32.  He had 53 points in 33 games that season.  The sky was the limit for Tyson as he continued to excel in hockey, playing for the Northwest Sharks in the Alberta Cup, making the final 46 players for team Alberta U17 and being ranked top 22 for forwards in Alberta!  His list of accomplishments goes on to include being drafted by the Red Deer Rebels, Bantam AAA Storm – Rookie of the Year & MVP, and Midget AAA Storm – Rookie of the Year.
