Colorado Rampage AAA Hockey

Cole Fletcher Named Tier 1 Director

We’re proud to announce that Cole Fletcher will be stepping into the role of Tier 1 Director for Colorado Rampage!

This marks Cole’s second season with the Rampage, and we’re excited to see him bring his passion and proven leadership to this new position. A Colorado native, Cole began his hockey journey with the Arapahoe Ice Warriors and went on to play junior hockey in the WSHL and KIJHL. While in Canada, he discovered his true calling behind the bench as an assistant coach.

Since then, Cole has built a strong coaching resume across Colorado—most notably guiding the 2006 birth year group at Littleton from U13AA through U18AA, culminating in a USA Hockey U16AA National Championship during the 2022–2023 season. His dedication to player development, advanced systems, and team-first mentality have led to success at every level.

Cole brings a wealth of experience, energy, and a deep commitment to developing elite athletes. We can’t wait to see the impact he’ll make as Tier 1 Director. Let’s go, Rampage!

Colorado Rampage Alumni Clayton Cosentino Named Air Force Hockey Captain for 2024/25 Season

Colorado Rampage alumnus Clayton Cosentino has been named one of the captains of the Air Force Academy hockey team for the 2024/25 season. Head coach Frank Serratore announced that Cosentino, a senior, will share captain duties with fellow senior Austin Schwartz, while juniors Mason McCormick and Holt Oliphant will serve as assistant captains.

Cosentino, originally from San Carlos, California, has been a standout player for the Air Force Falcons. A three-time academic all-conference selection, he has played in 110 games over his career, recording 73 points (23 goals, 50 assists). In the 2023/24 season, Cosentino tied for second on the team in goals and was a leader in faceoff wins, leading the nation with 594 wins and a faceoff win percentage of .592. Alongside his athletic success, he excels academically as a civil engineering major and has earned a place on the Dean's, Commandant's, and Superintendent's Lists.

Before his time at the Air Force Academy, Cosentino captained the Colorado Rampage alongside current Air Force player Jasper Lester. Together, they led the team to nationals during the 2018-2019 season, showcasing Cosentino's leadership and skill at a young age.

Cosentino’s journey from Colorado Rampage to the Air Force Academy highlights his impressive development both on and off the ice. As he enters his final collegiate season, he’s poised to lead the Falcons to success with the same determination that helped him guide his youth team to the national stage.

The Air Force Academy hockey team opens the season with a highly anticipated matchup against Arizona State on October 4-5 at the Cadet Ice Arena.

Colorado Rampage is Happy to Announce Grant Arnold as new Associate Coach

I grew up in Denver and played youth hockey for the Littleton Hawks, Colorado T-Birds, and Colorado Rampage, winning numerous state and regional titles along the way. However, I was never a top player as a kid and was the last player cut three years in a row when I was a Pee Wee and Bantam. This fueled my passion for competition and improvement from an early age. I vowed never to be outworked or outcompeted. At 15, I switched to forward and was later drafted as a late pick in the USHL draft after playing for the Rampage. 

I played three years in the USHL from 2009 to 2012, where I won two Anderson Cups and two Clark Cups and served as assistant captain and captain. I was also a two-time winner of the Unsung Hero award.

After that, I played at the University of Denver (DU), where I was a part of the 2014 Conference Champions and a four-time tournament team participant, reaching the 2016 Frozen Four. I served as a two-time captain in my junior and senior years, becoming the only player in the last 70 years at DU to hold this honor. I was a three-time winner of the Most Inspirational award and received the 2016 Comeback Athlete of the Year and Strength and Conditioning awards.

My professional hockey career included playing in the ECHL for the Quad City Mallards during the 2016-2017 season, where I was named assistant captain halfway through my rookie season. I then served as an assistant coach for the Green Bay Gamblers from 2017 to 2018 and played in the ECHL in Florida during the 2018-2019 season.

I owe much of my success to Coach Sherman and the Rampage organization. Returning to coach where it all began is incredibly special to me. Throughout my hockey career, I surpassed many expectations by focusing on hard work and being a good teammate. For me, it's all about teamwork, continuous improvement, and actively listening to coaching. The ability to listen and implement feedback is a rare skill with endless room for growth. A quote that resonated with me during my playing days was "Respect All, Fear None." I look forward to sharing my skills and knowledge with our hockey athletes. #GoRampage

Relationships and Patience Pay Off for Rampage Stand-out Cody Paul

One year ago, Rampage forward Cody Paul was completing an unprecedented season as a 2011 birth-year playing 13O AAA hockey in the Tier-1 Elite League. Looking forward to improving on his rookie Tier-1 campaign, he suffered a crushing blow over the summer learning of a new USA Hockey rule that disqualified him from returning to his 13O team. Relegated back to 12U hockey without competitive game opportunities in Colorado, Cody turned his focus to skill development practicing with Rampage Tier-1 teams and off-ice training. Remaining patient and positive, the opportunity of a lifetime came knocking. From February 7-18, Cody Paul competed in the most prestigious Pewee tournament in world, the Quebec International Hockey Tournament. Skating with the Ohio Blue Jackets 12U AAA team, he played games against the Boston Advantage, LA Jr. Kings, Middlesex Islanders, Boston Jr. Terriers, Japan Selects, and Suisse Romande Beliers.

 John Burkart, an NHL scout with the Tampa Bay Lightning and close friend of the Colorado Rampage, had a history of drafting several Rampage players for years working in the USHL. Burkart played a key role helping Cody and the Rampage navigate through the season challenges and find creative solutions for his competitive development. His journey to Quebec was made possible through the strong relationships the Rampage have cultivated with the Ohio Blue Jackets AAA program and their long-time President Ed Gingher. Despite the setback in Colorado, Cody's determination and the Rampage's commitment to their athletes led to a creative solution that allowed him to pursue his dreams on an international stage. This collaborative effort underscores the importance of fostering positive connections within the sports community and the unwavering support that Rampage provides to its athletes. Cody's success in Quebec serves as a testament to the power of teamwork, perseverance and patience.

 “The same way the Rampage has provided opportunities for players from under-served markets outside of Colorado for over 20 years, to help facilitate a Rampage player being underserved in Colorado an opportunity to pursue his dreams was very rewarding. -Pat Bingham, Rampage President"
