COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. - USA Hockey today announced the 36 goaltenders who will attend the third annual Warren Strelow National Team Goaltending Camp, May 27-30, in Ann Arbor, Mich. The goaltenders chosen represent the top goaltenders eligible for international play in select age groups.

In addition, assistant mentors Seth Appert, Jeff Blashill, Dave Flint, Derek Lalonde, David Lassonde, Emily McKissock, Phil Osaer and Nick Petraglia, as well as guest coaches Mandy Cronin, Bill Howard, Alison Quandt, Brian Renfrew and John Vanbiesbrouck will be on hand for instruction.
