The roster features 11 players from last year's Junior Team that went 1-2-1 in a fourth-place finish at the 2017 CCM NIT. With nine new faces -- including two goalies -- and three players that were named to the 2018 MI-HS Dream Team, expectations for the group are very high.
"We're excited about this group of seniors and expect to compete and show well in Minnesota," said Fleming. "With such a diverse group and kids coming together from all over the state, we'll definitely need a strong two weeks of camp and preparation."
Training camp for this senior group is slated to begin Sunday, April 8th, and will run for 11 consecutive days leading up to the tournament, which begins Thursday, April, 19th.
The Team Michigan Junior roster will be announced at a later date.
