ITHACA, N.Y. -- The Cornell women's ice hockey team will be well-represented when the Canadian National Women's Team hosts its Summer Showcase selection camp from August 3-14. Eleven former and current members of the Big Red will be among 142 athletes that will compete at the Markin MacPhail Centre at WinSport's Canada Olympic Park.

Coaches from the Canada's National Women's Team, Canada's National Women's Development Team and Canada's National Women's Under-18 Team will be present at the start of a new four-year Olympic cycle.

Jaime Bourbonnais '20, Laura Fortino '13, Brianne Jenner '15, Rebecca Johnston '12, Kristin O'Neill '20, Jillian Saulnier '15 and Micah Zandee-Hart '17 will join current team members junior Ashley Messier and freshmen Avi Adam, Sarah MacEachern and Mckenna Van Gelder.

The selection camp is also a critical step for Canada's National Women's Team in preparation for the 2022 IIHF Women's World Championship, Aug. 24-Sept. 4 in Herning and Frederikshavn, Denmark. Canada is expected to play Denmark and the United States in a pair of pre-tournament games prior to the start of the women's worlds.
