ALso - Alex Citrowske is a Forward, Not a D, like I had on my last post*

OUTSTANDING! Greer is a player who loves the game and has worked very hard to get better all the not losing perspective. Vermont is on the verge of becoming a great program and Greer will contribute to an already strong class.

It will be interesting to see College Hockey evolve as this class play's thier 4 years. What will the balance of power/talent look like WCHA, Hockey East, CHA, ECAC

Joe, Thanks for the breakdown. The one thing these numbers tell me is the trend is for MN girls to continue to commit early. The coaches I know tell me this is regional thing, and not driven by the college coaches. It will be interesting to see what the final numbers will be, but looking at the players in this class (not counting Thour/SSM since I don't follow them as much) there appears to be 5-10 D1 kids who have not committed. I would guess when it's all done MN will end up in the same place we have the past few years with somewhere in the 35-40 range.

I'm clueless when it comes to projecting how HS players will perform at the next (D1) level, but the Gophers class for next year is WOW. Looks like they get Ms. Hockey again plus.
So the number has topped 30 and it's only October. Maybe this will be the year that it finally reaches 40? Gotta figure Bemidji might add a couple more Minnesota girls and Mankato isn't on the list yet.

Please explain what you're seeing here?

I know there are a lot of talented women players fom every corner of the US. I also know there are a lot of 19U Tier 1 teams with solid female players from every state, NAHA, Belle Tire, NSA, etc.

Why 33 signings from Minnesota and 2-3-4 from other States? What's the missing story in the numbers?

College is much different, so whether or not these ladies will be successful in the college game remains to be seen.....

But the High School level IMO the tier 1 teams that play at Nationaly are overrated in my mind. Good! But overrated We can put together 3 teams that hardly practise and go beat these so-called "Tier 1". Whitecaps and Icecats are perfect examples during the summer. NAHA tourney would have had 2 Minnesota Teams in the 'Ship - If the Whitecaps would have had thier full team and even so it was 1 goal away from happening.

Elite league was another good example. Belle Tire & Shattuck beat down on a couple Elite teams but once the Minnesota teams started to play together more - they won the whole thing and without and practices...

I think the missing story in the numbers is just that - numbers. We have more than most states. And training and avaibale ice times. We can skate just about and time and any place here in Minny
