In 29 games he scored 28 goals with 33 assists as the Greyhounds captured the Section 7AA title and reached the Minnesota AA championship game – falling to Eden Prairie. In 24 games with Team North he scored 11 goals with 8 assists and had 12 penalty minutes.
2011-12: Toninato made his USHL debut, skating in four games with the Fargo Force, and was the second-leading scorer for Duluth East in his senior season, finishing with 73 points in 31 games. He scored 1 goal and was minus-one with 2 penalty minutes in his brief tenure with the Force. Toninato scored 33 goals with 40 assists as Duluth East again won the Section 7AA championship and Minnesota AA consolation title.
