Former Mount Academy Saints trio earn spots on UPEI Women’s Hockey roster
After a successful showing at training camp, three former Mount Academy Saints—Rachel Richards, Orianna MacNeil, and Kierra St. Peter—have earned their way on to the UPEI Women’s Hockey roster.
“We all took notice of their skill, work ethic, habits, and level of play,” said head coach Sean Fisher. “Where they are at in their development is a testament to the program they come from, and the coaching Kenny MacDougall provides at the Mount Academy. I think all three will be strong U SPORTS players for the foreseeable future.”
