Brodt announces transfer to U
 
Winny Brodt of Roseville, Minnesota's Miss Hockey in 1996, said
Thursday she is transferring from New Hampshire to the University of
Minnesota.
 
Once she is released from her scholarship at New Hampshire, which
she expects will occur soon, she will be eligible to play for the
Gophers.
 
Brodt, who will be a sophomore defenseman, was the most valuable
player in the American Women's College Hockey Alliance
Championship tournament, which New Hampshire won in March.
Brodt had two assists in a 4-1 title-game victory over Brown.
 
``I'm transferring because of my family, so I can be closer to them
and so they can see me play more,'' said Brodt, 20. ``UNH was
great. I loved the team and the coach. But UNH is not in Minnesota.
 
``I'm really excited to play for the Gophers. Everyone in the East was
so surprised how good they were for a first-year program last year.''
 
Brodt, who led an unbeaten Roseville girls team to the 1996 state
prep championship in the school's first season of varsity hockey, was
an honorable mention selection in the 1997-98 East Coast Athletic
Conference Women's League.
