Six Wood River Valley teenage hockey players are headed for the 2021 USA Hockey-Chipotle National Championship in Denver April 29 through May 3. This is only the second time in the history of the sport that Idaho has sent a girls hockey team to Nationals.
Amanda Dunn, Avery Burrell, Charlotte Davis-Jeffers, Devon McAvoy, Grendel Sprong, Laura Daves and Maeve O’Connell will be joined by six players from Boise and three from Meridian, McCall and Moscow. The 16U Tier hockey team dominated in the Rocky Mountain Regionals, even though COVID precautions kept them from practicing together until a couple months ago.
