By @MichaelCaples –

Megan Roe will be leaving the state of Michigan for hockey next season.

The Woodhaven native has committed and signed her letter of intent with St. Cloud State for the 2017-18 season.

Roe told MiHockey that the Huskies and St. Cloud State were on the top of her list of schools.

“This has been my first choice for a long time,” Roe said. “The coaching staff and team are great and the university itself is everything I’m looking for in a school.”

After playing for Little Caesars last season, she is now skating with Belle Tire. Next year, Roe will be competing against some of the top teams in women’s college hockey, as she starts play in the WCHA. At the moment, her St. Cloud State team checks in at No. 5 in the WCHA standings – a conference that features the likes of Minnesota, Wisconsin, Minnesota Duluth and North Dakota.

“It’s an honor to play for St. Cloud in one of the toughest conferences in college hockey,” Roe said. “I could not ask for a better place to spend the next four years.”
