As CPC prepares for another exciting season, several returning players are already making headlines after standout performances across the NEPSAC league. With tryouts just around the corner, the program’s talent is on full display, highlighted by impressive goal-scoring, playmaking, and overall point production.
Leading the charge is Francie Ames, who delivered one of the most dominant offensive seasons in the league. Ames finished tied for the NEPSAC lead in goals with 26, while also recording an extraordinary 38 assists, leading the league. Her ability to both finish plays and create opportunities made her the most productive player overall, as she topped the NEPSAC leaderboard with 64 total points through 29 games.
Another major contributor was Madeline Call, with 24 goals through 28 games. Call’s scoring touch combined with strong playmaking—she added 19 assists—helped her finish the season with 43 total points, placing her among the league’s top offensive performers. CPC’s offensive strength didn’t stop there. Maria Gray with 23 goals, while also adding 26 assists to finish with 49 total points.
CPC’s depth was evident across the stat sheet. Brooke Carlson added 21 goals and finished the year with 30 points, while Simone Burns contributed 18 goals, giving CPC players among the league’s top scorers.
The playmaking talent extended well beyond the top spot in assists. Erin Sears ranked 5th in NEPSAC with 26 assists, while Addy Peel (23 assists), Grace Riley (23 assists), and Madeline Call (19 assists) all landed in the league’s top assists leaders.
With multiple CPC athletes leading NEPSAC in goals, assists, and total points, the numbers highlight not just individual talent but the strength of the program as a whole.
The Mass State Girls U16 & U19 Tournament was a statement weekend for the Collegiate Prospects, as the Valley Jr. Warriors, and the Boston Americans controlled the tournament and proved they are the top force in New England girls’ hockey. When it mattered most, Elite 9 teams captured 4 of the only 7 automatic USA Hockey National Championship bids — an unmatched showing of depth and high-end performance.
Even more telling: CPC teams didn’t just win — they dominated their biggest rival league, defeating 12 NEGHL opponents on the road to Nationals.
Why CPC Wins: Development First — Championships Follow
While Elite 9 teams left Mass States with banners, CPC’s mission has never been “chase championships.” The results are a byproduct of players committing to purposeful training designed to make them better for their high school seasons and beyond — not the other way around.
As CPC Director Seth Goodrich explains:
“This model is not for everyone,” said Goodrich. “The program is designed for the driven player, who is focused on their own advancement and believe in a process to get to where they want to be as a player 1-2-3 years out. All of our players have extremely busy academic and fall sport schedules, therefore it is important for their fall hockey training to be focused and condensed in one location and limit travel so they can train with a purpose.”
That mindset showed all weekend: Elite 9 teams were sharper, more composed, and consistently outworked opponents — including NEGHL programs — because their focus all fall was individual improvement, player development, and training with intent. The wins were simply the result.
