Charles Barber is a 24-year-old left-handed defenseman who is 6’2” and 205 pounds. Charles began his college career by playing the first three seasons at the State University of New York-Plattsburgh.  In three years with the Cardinals, he put up 21 points, scoring four goals and 17 assists in 66 games.
