Eric Alan Bram was born on June 20th, 1986 in Scott Township near Pittsburgh, PA. He is the son of Alan and Elaine Bram, who owns Bram's Cleaners on Mount Washington. He graduated Chartiers Valley High School in 2004 and was #1 in his graduating class. To further his education, he attended Case Western Reserve University in Cleveland, OH for his undergraduate degree in Computer Science. He then continued his education at the University of Pittsburgh for his masters degree in Information Science.

Hockey has always been a big part of Eric's life. Him and his younger sister, Lauren Bram, both began skating close to the age of 2. Eric continued to play both ice hockey and roller hockey throughout his high school years. After graduating college, he continued to pick up playing roller hockey where he left off-- at the Southpointe RollerPlex complex. It was there that the roller hockey team called the Misfits came to be.

In November 2009 Eric Bram became the first president and obtained an EIN from the government to create the South Hills Misfits nonprofit hockey club. The club now continues to flourish with a total of three teams who play at both Southpointe RollerPlex and Brideville RollerPlex. Accomplishments of the Misfits include:
 * Bridgeville Fall 08 AA League Champions - Senior Misfits
 * Southpointe Summer 08 AA League Champions - Senior Misfits
 * Bridgeville Winter 08 AA League Champions - Senior Misfits
 * Southpointe Spring 09 AA League Champions - Southpointe Misfits

The Misfits logo originates from a stop-motion Christmas film featuring Francis, the pink elephant, on the Island of Misfit toys.
