Colorado ended a disappointing season with an exit from the tournament following the pool round... the obvious highlight of Bateman and crew's run was Katie McGovern's overtime goal to lift the Select over Rice in their opener.

The Pens also made a quick exit from the tournament... however, Holdcroft and Kern provided a brief moment where things might have turned out completely differently with some added puck luck during the Minnesota game... Pittsburgh fell in a 3-0 hole after the first period, but Kern's apple on a Morgan Blank goal got her team on the board... Holdcroft finished the rally on her goal, which tied the game with 12:25 remaining... however, the Thoroughbreds scored twice more in short order, providing the margin of defeat.

Laurenzi was one of two PSU recruits to make it to the Tier I quarterfinals, before her NSA squad bowed out against Chicago, the eventual runners-up... the Mountaineers were doomed to that tough quarterfinal draw by a loss to an equally tough Shattuck team, despite two blowout wins to start their run.

No, statistics don't tell the whole story - except when they do... Hoenshell was flat-out dominant in leading the Bulldogs to the Tier II national championship... she had a hand in literally 2/3 of the team's goals during the tournament (24 of 36 to be precise)... Alliance only faced one situation remotely resembling a challenge, during their second pool game against the Mid-Fairfield CT Stars... after the Bulldogs took an early 2-0 lead, the Stars answered with two of their own before the first intermission, and the level score held until the final period, when Hoenshell popped in her two goals for the final margin.

Despite dropping two of three pool games, the Bears benefited from the tournament's 3-2-1-0 point system, as their shootout loss to Honeybaked gave out just enough credit to sneak into fourth place in the National Division and advance to the quarterfinals... once there though, they suffered the same fate as Laurenzi and NSA - elimination at the hands of a good opponent.

Much like the Pens Elite girls, it's pretty easy to see how things could have gone very differently for Pardoski, Shaw and Honeybaked... following a one-goal loss to eventual champion Assabet that was 4:49 away from overtime (and a guaranteed standings point), Honeybaked held a 3-1 lead on Washington entering the third period before a natural hat trick from Boston College-bound Haley Skarupa flipped the score... the team closed with a win, but because it was in a shootout, only two points were awarded instead of three... Honeybaked was two points shy of advancing.
