MINNEAPOLIS -- Eleven current, past, or future Gophers are among the 44 players that will participate in the 2018 USA Hockey Women's Winter Training Camp, which will take place Dec. 17-21 at USA Hockey Arena in Plymouth, Michigan, USA Hockey announced Wednesday.
Gophers Emily Brown, Taylor Heise, Kelly Pannek, and Grace Zumwinkle join incoming Gopher Madeline Wethington and Minnesota alumnae Megan Bozek, Hannah Brandt, Dani Cameranesi, Amanda Kessel, Gigi Marvin, and Lee Stecklein in attending the annual training camp, which serves as an opportunity to help the top players prepare for upcoming international events, including the 2019 IIHF Women's World Championship. University of Minnesota women's hockey associate head coach Joel Johnson is serving as an assistant coach at the camp as well.
Highlighting the roster for the Women's Winter Training Camp are 22 members of the championship-winning 2018 Four Nations Cup roster, as well as 22 Olympians. Of the 44 players on the roster, 20 are postgraduate players competing in professional leagues during the 2018-19 season, 23 are active NCAA players, and one player (Wethington) competes in high school.
Players invited to the camp represent 17 states, with Minnesota leading the way with 14 athletes calling the State of Hockey home. Massachusetts follows with five players, while Illinois has four, and New York and Wisconsin each have three. Alaska, California, and Michigan have two representatives, while Colorado, Connecticut, Idaho, Iowa, Missouri, New Hampshire, New Jersey, North Dakota, and Vermont each have one.
All practices and scrimmages associated with the 2018 USA Hockey Women's Winter Training Camp will be open to the public.
