Prior to his time in Tri-City, Sofikitis spend two seasons with the North American Hockey League's Maryland Black Bears. Longtime friend and current Omaha Lancer Tanner Morgan had high praise for Sofikitis saying, "Evan is very smart on the breakout. He has hard, heavy skill, is very physical and is not being afraid to muck it up or fight."

As a 20 year old, Sofikitis still has one year of junior eligibility left before aging out to Robert Morris. Whether he returns to the Storm or joins the Colonials, Sofikitis' intensity on the back end will be a plus for whatever team has him on their roster.
