USA Hockey has invited 26 players, including eight with Gopher ties, to a national women's hockey development camp, starting Saturday in Colorado Springs. Future national teams will be picked from this pool of players.

Four current Gophers will be at the camp: defenders Megan Bozek and Anne Schleper, and forwards Amanda Kessel and Jen Schoullis.

Also there will be four former Gophers, all forwards: Gigi Marvin, who played four seasons at the U; twins Jocelyn Lamoureux and Monique Lamoureux-Kolls, who transferred from Minnesota to North Dakota after their freshman season, and Jenny Potter, who played her senior year at the U after three seasons at UMD.

All 21 players on the U.S. team which won the 2011 IIHF World Championships will be there.
