DRIGGS, Idaho — The Teton High Cutthroats’ own Hayden Lancaster was selected to represent Team Idaho in their first-ever appearance at the Ameriaca’s Showcase in St. Louis, April 20 to 24.
This inaugural event is a chance for Idaho Hockey athletes to show their skills and passion for high-level hockey to many hockey coaches and scouts from all over the United States. Lancaster will be the sole representative from Teton High School, but will be joined by players from Idaho Falls, McCall, Coeurd D’ Alane and many Boise area Schools.
“To me, it’s a dream come true,” said Lancaster. “This community has given me the opportunity to pursue something I love. Now I get to show the nation what our little state and valley have to offer.”
Lancaster says he “lives and breathes hockey and is constantly refining his craft.” He’s truly happiest when he’s on the ice, and when there isn’t any, he creates his own dry rink to practice slap shots. His coach Wyatt Watkins dubbed him “The Big Wind Up” because he is known for his amazing slap shot from the blue line.
Good luck Hayden!
