Kendall Doiron is the top prospect in Atlantic Canada right now, and when the NCAA commitment window opens this summer, she'll be a highly sought after player.
When the 2024 NCAA recruitment window opens this June, Kendall Doiron will need multiple phone lines to field calls. The 15-year-old Boylston, Nova Scotia product is the top prospect in Atlantic Canada, and will have options when it comes to where she chooses to play at the collegiate level.
Doiron led the Maritime Major Female Hockey League in scoring this season with the Northern Selects recording 34 goals and 64 points in only 32 games.
She followed that up with 10 goals and 14 points in seven playoff to help bring the Northern Selects back to the Esso Cup, Canada's club championship for U-18 women's hockey teams.
The Selects were overpowered in the tournament, but Doiron continued to show her elite speed, hands, and finish with her team.
Last year, 2007 born players like Styker Zablocki, Madison Burr, and Berlin Lolacher all used the Esso Cup as a final showcase to earn their commitments to Northeastern, Minnesota-Duluth, and Mercyhurst respectively.
This time around, it's 2008 born Doiron's turn to translate her slick skills with the puck, skating ability, and scoring to a future in the NCAA.
