Wildcats Tender Top Players from Open Camp

The Minnesota Wildcats held an Open Camp for players on June 18th – 21st in Maple Grove. The camp consisted of four teams that produced a great weekend of hockey. The Wildcats are expected to invite several players back to Main Camp in August. In addition, the Minnesota Wildcats are excited to announce that 3 of the top players from camp have signed tender agreements. Forward TJ Marquardt, defensemen Jake Sornsen and Nick Schipke have all agreed to join the Minnesota Wildcats for the 2010-2011 season. 

TJ will be joining the Wildcats after playing for Chaska/Chanhassen in one of the toughest conferences in the state. His playing at this high level along with his intensity will be valuable in the upcoming season.
Jake is coming from Andover High School where he helped his team to a 16-7-2 record. Standing at 6’5” Jake will be a dominating presence on the blueline for the Wildcats.
Nick comes to the Wildcats after playing for Aberdeen High School in South Dakota. Nick has a great awareness on the ice that solidify the Wildcats defensive core.
“We are very pleased with the outcome of our Open Camp. The tenders that we signed this weekend will provide a strong addition to this team. TJ is a strong, powerful forward who will provide strength along with a scoring touch to our forwards. Jake is a big defenseman who is going to make us tough to play against. Lastly, Nick is great addition out of South Dakota. He is strong player who is very solid defensively. “ - Coach Liesmaki
