No Pros But Minnesota's Celly League Is Back For Another Season

Minnesota's Celly League is back for another season. This year, the league won't feature pro players as the PWHL's collective bargaining agreement prohibits players from participating, but the league is certainly not short on talent.

Among the pros and future pros who played last season were Liz Schepers, Abby Boreen, Madison Bizal, Denisa Krizova, Paetyn Levis, Claire Butorac, Amanda Leveille, Maggie Flahety, and Brittyn Fleming who all played in the PWHL last season, along with 2024 PWHL Draft picks Mannon McMahon and Madeline Wethington.

This season, the league is filled with current and future NCAA standouts.

Some of the top names this season in the Celly League include Wisconsin's Vivian Jungels, Minnesota's Ella Huber, Peyton Hemp, and Ava Lindsay, St. Thomas' Ella Boerger and Cara Sajevic, Minnesota-Duluth's Nina Steigauf, Penn State's Katelyn Roberts, New Hampshire's Sedona Blair, Princeton's Uma Corneia, and this year's Minnesota Ms. Hockey Ayla Puppe who will play at Minnesota.

The league which plays Tuesday's and Thursday's throughout the summer opened this week with four games on the schedule.

Four of the league's five teams picked up wins in week one.

St. Cloud State's Addi Scribner and Breja Parent topped all scorers in week one scoring a pair of goals and adding an assist each. Minnesota State's Lauren Zawoyski and Brown's Sam Broz were the only other players with three points each in week one.
