Frost Players, Including First-Timer Taylor Heise, Dominate Olympic Roster

On Friday, Taylor Heise was named to the U.S. women's Olympic hockey team that will compete next month in Milan-Cortina d'Ampezzo, Italy.
After being cut four years ago, Heise rebuilt her résumé by leading Division I in points, winning the Patty Kazmaier Award, and earning top-forward honors at the IIHF World Championships.
Six Frost players, including five of the team's nine forwards, made the U.S. roster, as Heise is one of eight players with Minnesota ties who produced 41 points in 56 Frost games.
After a four-year wait, Heise called it `one of the best things that ever happened to me` and said she is `basking in it` after the selection.
In all, 16 PWHL players representing five of the league's eight teams made the U.S. roster, selected under John Wroblewski, Team USA coach this cycle.
