CALGARY— Megan Carter of the Northeastern women's hockey team was one of 46 players invited by Hockey Canada that are set to participate in the National Women's Team September camp, presented by BFL CANADA, from Sept. 11-16 at Canada Games Park in Thorold, Ontario.
 
Carter is the lone current Hockey East player to earn an invite. The Huskies' captain, Carter made her national team debut in the Rivalry Series last December.
 
The Milton, Ontario native has appeared in 131 games for the Huskies, tallying 14 goals and 47 assists for 61 points. Carter was named Hockey East's Best Defender in 2022-23 and has won the Elite 90 award for three-straight years.
 
The players will be split into two teams – Red and White – for practices, fitness testing, off-ice sessions and a pair of intrasquad games on Sept. 14 and 16. The National Women's Team September camp, presented by BFL CANADA, will serve as a critical step towards preparation for international competition throughout the 2023-24 season, including the 2024 IIHF Women's World Championship in Utica, NY, next spring.
 
The intrasquad game on Sept. 14 will be open to the public and free to attend. Tickets for the game on Sept. 16 will be available at Canada Games Park, while both games will be livestreamed for free on HockeyCanada.ca.
