The two teams that will represent Michigan’s high school hockey scene at a prestigious Minnesota showcase have been decided.

Michigan will be sending two teams – one made of juniors and one made of seniors – to the CCM High School National Invitational Tournament in Minnesota, which will take place from April 23-26 at the Plymouth Ice Center in Plymouth, Minn.

The tournament is comprised of the top high school hockey players in Michigan, Minnesota, Massachusetts, North Dakota and Wisconsin. It is a popular destination for scouts of junior, college and professional teams.
