On Monday, USA Hockey released its roster for its U.S. Under-18 women’s Select Team, and Minnesota is well represented. Ten Minnesotans were selected, the most of any state on the 25-player roster.

Leading the way is Proctor/Hermantown junior Taylee Manion, who earlier this year won a gold medal with the U.S. Under-18 Women’s National Team at the IIHF Under-18 Women’s World Championship. This past high school season, Manion scored 22 goals in 23 games.

Gophers recruit Amelia Sutch, a junior at Centennial/Spring Lake Park who had 25 goals and 35 assists during the 2025-26 season, and Maddison Boone, a junior at Woodbury and Quinnipiac recruit who scored 34 goals and 19 assists last season, made the team. Joining them are Dartmouth recruit and Minnetonka senior Delaney Miller and Bemidji State recruit and Wayzata senior Noelle Noble.

Other Minnesota players named to the team were Allie Callinan (Holy Family), Hill-Murray teammates Hannah Rychley and Reese Unklesbay, Emma Pieper (East Grand Forks) and Alexis Ulrich (Breck).

The U.S. team plays Canada in a three-game series beginning Wednesday at 3:30 p.m. Pacific at the Richmond Olympic Oval in Richmond, B.C.
