The Elite 9 continues to show why it is home to the most talented girls’ league and hockey players in the country, with seven players from E9 programs selected to represent the United States as part of the U.S. Under-18 Women’s Team.

There’s no debate about where the top girls’ hockey talent in Massachusetts is playing. Every Massachusetts-based player selected to the U.S. Under-18 Women’s Team comes from an Elite 9 program.

Representing CPC Hockey / Boston Americans are Frances Ames, Lily Bromley, Madeline Call and Reese Engel, while Lovell Academy’s Annabelle Lovell, Aubryn Monter and Chyna Taylor also earned the opportunity to wear the red, white and blue.

From the Boston Americans to Lovell Academy, the numbers tell the story. When it comes to developing elite girls’ hockey talent in Massachusetts, the pathway runs through the E9. While others can talk about being elite, the E9 proves it.
