Several Gopher women's hockey alums spent the 2019-20 season with the PWHPA.
The PWHPA wrapped up its season with a Dream Gap Tour stop in Tempe, Arizona (March 6-8). Members of the PWHPA took on the Arizona Coyotes alumni during the Dream Gap Tour stop, which also included a game between Team Newkirk and Team McGovern and a youth hockey clinic. Stecklein and Kessel suited up for Team McGovern while Cameranesi represented Team Newkirk.
"If you're watching now, if you're paying attention, these girls are really skilled, they're really good players, so it's pretty impressive."
