Jim Cerny, the voice of the Venom, stands up with goalie Eli Bowers ahead of the Venom's inaugural game against the Binghamton Black Bears.

The 23-year-old from Whitefish Bay, Wisconsin, appeared in seven FPHL games last season as a rookie, including six with the Elmira River Sharks, where he was teammates with Venom assistant coach MJ Maerkl.

Bowers was 2-4-0 with a 5.42 goals-against average and .871 save percentage with the River Sharks. He played one game for the Motor City Rockers, his professional debut on Oct. 23, and stopped 23 of 24 shots in a victory against the Port Huron Prowlers.
