Freshman Sam Cogan of the Canadian U-18 National Team joins US U-18 Women's National Teammates Sophia Shaver and Mikaela Gardner in the Badger freshman class this season
Cogan, a native of Ottawa, Ontario, won gold with Team Canada at the 2014 IIHF U-18 Women's World Championships, where she scored two goals, including one in the gold medal game, and and silver in the 2015 tournament. In 2013, she tallied 37 goals and 63 assists for 100 points in 68 games and helped the Wildcats U-19 team win its first pennant in only its fourth season.
While Shaver and Gardner spent the summer in Madison, Cogan moved on campus at the start of the fall semester.
