usa 300By @MichaelCaples –

Yesterday, the NTDP announced their Under-17 roster and schedule for the 2014-15 season.

Today, it was time for the Under-18s.

The USA Hockey program in Ann Arbor officially announced their roster and their schedule for the NTDP Under-18 Team today, the group of draft-eligible players who compete not only in the USHL, but against various NCAA programs as well.

The Under-18 roster features three Michigan natives on the roster. Had he not jumped to the University of Michigan early, Zach Werenski would have made the count four, after playing for the NTDP last season. The current Michigan natives are:

  • Nick Boka (Plymouth) – Wolverines commit
  • Brendan Warren (Carleton) – Wolverines commit
  • Grant Gabriele (Brighton) – Broncos commit

The U18s will start their season at the USHL Atlantic Challenge in New York on Friday, Sept. 5. Their first home game will be on Saturday, Sept. 13, against the NAHL’s Michigan Warriors.

Their college competition will begin on Saturday, Oct. 4, when the U18s travel to Goggin Ice Center and take on Miami University. Two days later, they will square off against the Michigan Wolverines at Yost Ice Arena.

The NTDP will also take on the Michigan State Spartans at Munn Ice Arena on Friday, Jan. 9.

Other college match-ups include Providence College, Boston University, Cornell University, Oswego State University, the University of Minnesota, Augsburg College, Stevens Point, Neumann University, the University of Wisconsin, Colorado College, Adrian College (outdoors in Toledo), the University of North Dakota and the University of Alabama-Huntsville.
