Our third PeeWee Challenge (PWC) is just around the corner. Like last year, the pucks will be flying and the excitement will be high.
Each team will don vintage high school uniforms - Bloomington Jefferson, St. Paul Johnson, Roseau, Minneapolis Southwest and Warroad. The PWC is a four game pool play event held at Bloomington Ice Garden. The top two teams in each field will square off in the Championship games Sunday afternoon.
Unlike most all star events, the PWC chooses players from all parts of Minnesota and drafts them to individual teams - separating players from regions onto teams with players from the whole state.
Past MVPs
2014 - Matt Gleason (St. Paul) and Kensie Malone (Armstrong Cooper)
2015 - Joey Pierce (Ely), Tyler Haskins (Rochester) and Vivian Jungels (Edina)
We'd write a section on players to watch, but the list would be really, really long.
Taylor Koeppl, Eden Prairie
