So something occurred at TW tryouts this season that has never occured before. Two players who play high school hockey outside of Wisconsin were at tryouts.
David Zevnik goalie from St. Thomas Academy, and Defenseman Travis Wood from HillMurray were both at the tryouts (Zevnik was at the high performance camp while Wood was not there due to a USHL tryout camp held the same weekend). Wood is highly likely to make the TW team and Zevnik has a chance as well.
It's interesting to note as the two of the players mentioned are from Wisconsin and they are current WI residence but play
high school hockey in Minnesota. I don't remember any players on TW ever having played for high schools outside the state, the real interesting part is wondering how their season would line up with TW's
postseason schedule since the WI Midget Major State Tournament, that TW takes part in, starts the week after the WI high school state tournament but MN High School tourneys are still going on at that time......

Wonder how that would work if their respective teams make it to state tourney in the MN High School playoffs as they'd certainly be wanted/needed for the WI MM State tourney. Then of course if TW makes it out of state they go on to play in Central Districts and then potentially the national tourney. Seems to me some MN High Schoolers have found a way to work the system so to speak and might be showing many others the potential drawing board for how to proceed if MN doesn't start more actively looking into "after season" oportunities for it's best kids. I am not against these kids doing this at all, but I do think it's interesting and something I'd never thought about before......
