Earlier this summer, Anthony was one of four members of the Hounds 2014 draft class to capture a bronze medal as part of Team Alliance at the OHL U16 cup.
In 5 games played he had 1 goal and 4 assists at that tournament.

One season ago (2013-14) he played with the Windsor Jr. Spitfires Minor Midgets where he posted 23 goals and 17 assists, good for 40 points in the regular season before adding 5 points in the post-season.

He was the Alliance Player of the Year for his efforts with the Jr. Spitfires while at the OHL Draft Combine, he excelled while ranking among the top three forwards in the off-ice portion.

Anthony will be among an expected 40+ players at the Hounds 2014 Training Camp to take place from August 26th through 29th.
