Kassidy Carmichael – Forward 4.5⭐️ from Massachusetts District.
Birth Year: 2006
Grad Year: 2025
Team: NAHA White 19U
NZ Scouts say: “She is hungry for a goal every shift, crashing the net, raising the tempo, and shooting to score. Sure to be a rising star.”
Sophia Busa – Forward 4.25⭐️ from New York District.
Birth Year: 2007
Grad Year: 2026
Team: Berkshire School
NZ Scouts say: “She has speed that allows her to be first to pucks, sneaking in front of heavier players to grab possession, then slipping out of their reach. Plays heads-up hockey. Each shift we watch Busa, we like her more and more – she forechecks hard, helps out in her own zone, and creates some of the best offense for her team. Consistently first to the puck.”
Molly Boyle – Defense 4.25⭐️ from Massachusetts District.
Birth Year: 2006
Grad Year: 2025
Team: Phillips Andover Academy
NZ Scouts say: “She almost slows the pace of the game with her control, but can up the pace as well and make defenders look out of place. Boyle is strong on the back end of the game. She stays on her player, uses her body and takes the forwards out of the equation. She is strong on her skates and reliable. She has speed, steps up to the play and gets involved from the blue line. She has a nice shot and great puck control.”
Molly MacCurtin – Forward 4.25⭐️ from Massachusetts District.
Birth Year: 2006
Grad Year: 2025
Team: Noble and Greenough School
NZ Scouts say: “MacCurtain is a fast and intelligent player. She takes great angles in her attack and often causes turnovers. She plays with composure and speed. Supports the play, and does the little things right like shoulder checks, skates pointing up ice, inside body positioning, and stick on puck play.”
Mercury Bischoff – Forward 4.25⭐️ from Minnesota District.
Birth Year: 2007
Grad Year: 2025
Team: MN Jr. Whitecaps White
NZ Scouts say: “She is smart, crafty, and creative. She is relied upon and gets things done. She is a big-time producer and has the ability to out-wit and outplay her opponents. She is dangerous with or without the puck. Her intelligence and patience make her a fun player to watch. She knows how to score and knows what it takes to win. Bischoff is young, but such an impact player.”
Taylor Buckley – Defense 4⭐️ from Massachusetts District.
Birth Year: 2006
Grad Year: 2025
Team: Cushing Academy
NZ Scouts say: “Her gap control is tight and she not only has the ability to strip her opponent of the puck, but immediately transition and contribute to the offensive attack. She is smooth through lanes when she skates it up. Physical in her own end, protects her goalie well.”
Nina Coffee – Defense 4⭐️ from New England District.
Birth Year: 2007
Grad Year: 2026
Team: Williston Northampton School
NZ Scouts say: “Coffee is a tall defender with a quick, hard point shot. Her shots are easy to tip, which contributes offensively as her team brings excellent net front presence. She skated it up on a few occasions with smarts. Her skating is not blazing fast, but she is mobile and matches the pace of play.”
Kenleigh Fischer – Defense 4⭐️ from Northern Plains District.
Birth Year: 2007
Grad Year: 2025
Team: Team North Dakota U14
NZ Scouts say: “Definitely offensive minded, takes an active role in the breakout and will follow the play up. Finds herself part of the rush often and has net front presence when she gets there. Defensively, she is strong and picks up sticks.”
Vanessa Magsino – Defense 4⭐️ from Central District.
Birth Year: 2007
Grad Year: 2026
Team: Chicago Mission U16
NZ Scouts say: “Magsino has great hand eye coordination, she knocked down a high saucer, right out of the air, and sent it back to the offensive zone. Her instincts are great. She steps in to intercept passes at the offensive blue, crushes shots for tips, or switches with the winger down the wall. She has a high motor, she is reliable, and consistent.”
Maisey Bojarski – Forward 4⭐️ from Central District.
Birth Year: 2006
Grad Year: 2024
Team: NAHA Red 16U
Committed: UVM ‘24
NZ Scouts say: “Bojarski is a smooth and fast forward. She sets up great plays in the o-zone. Her decisions are quick, and she can catch and release pucks in the slot before the goalie has a chance to track them. Very impressive”
Zoe Lopez – Forward 4⭐️ from Minnesota District.
Birth Year: 2006
Grad Year: 2024
Team: Orono High School
NZ Scouts say: “Lopez is committed to her play. She has the vision to put pucks in scoring positions and can be an offensive threat. She produces and can set up the play from anywhere in the offensive zone. She is skilled and can control the puck in and out of traffic with strong instincts”
Makayla Moran – Forward 4⭐️ from Minnesota District
Birth Year: 2006
Grad Year: 2025
Team: Apple Valley High School
NZ Scouts say: “Moran seemed to have a beast mode when the puck drops. She bodies up opponents, drives through their hands, battles at the paint, and does everything in her power to win ice. She is strong in these battles and wins when the puck comes to her, does a nice job to use that strength to protect pucks. She is also smart and likes to keep pucks down low where she knows she has an advantage to grind up her opponents and win puck battles.”
Grace Morin – Forward 4⭐️ from Atlantic District.
Birth Year: 2007
Grad Year: 2025
Team: Loomis Chaffee School
NZ Scouts say: “She has good size and strong skating abilities getting up ice and putting herself into quality positions offensively and defensively. The New Jersey native plays the same way every game, no matter the opponent…she put up points in every viewing we had of her. She’s up and down the ice with ease, strong on pucks, and in excellent position.”
Lola Reid – Forward 4⭐️ from Central District.
Birth Year: 2006
Grad Year: 2024
Committed: Boston University ‘24
Team: Shattuck St. Mary’s PrepNZ Scouts say: “Reid has good size, plays physical and is hard to knock off the puck. She has a good net presence and drives the net hard for shots on goal. Defensively Reid gets low to take away centering passes and is typically defensively responsible. Offensively she uses her size to her advantage and can casually wheel with the puck into the offensive zone seemingly with little effort.”
