Since moving to Boston back in college, Corinne Schroeder has established herself as one of the best goaltenders in the city but also around the country. The 23-year-old has had an impressive career to date, from her time at Boston University and Quinnipiac University to now playing in the PHF for the Boston Pride.
The College Years
The Elm Creek, MB, Canada native made a move to the NCAA back in 2017 when she enrolled at Boston University. During her four years as a Terrier, she started 91 games posting a career .925 save percentage to go along with eight shutouts. In two of her four years there, she posted below a 2.00 GAA and above a .930 save percentage. Due to her outstanding play, she took home plenty of hardware, thanks to the hard work she put in each season.
Accolades from her BU career include Hockey East Second Team All-Star (2019-20), Hockey East Third Team All-Star (2018-19), Hockey East All-Rookie Team (2017-18), Hockey East All-Academic Team (2019-20, 2018-19, 2017-18), AHCA All-American Scholar (2019-20, 2018-19), and National Goaltender of the Year Award Watch List (2020-21).
Her best season came when she completed a graduate year at Quinnipiac University, where she went 15-8-2 and posted off-the-chart statistics. Across 29 games Schroeder has a 1.44 GAA and a unbelievable .951 save percentage. She also recorded six shutouts and had 73 saves in a single game. She was named the Bobcats’ Women’s Hockey MVP and was a candidate for the NCAA’s Women’s Goalie of the Year award.
Schroeder Takes PHF By Storm
After her five years playing college hockey, Schroeder joined the Boston Pride of the PHF this season. She has continued to showcase the high level of skill and discipline that made her great in college. She has been a major factor for the Boston Pride this season as they sit in second place in the standings trailing the Toronto Stars by a few points.
Schroeder is currently leading the PHF in all three major goalie categories, which include goals against average (GAA), save percentage (save %), and wins. She has a 7-1-0 record in nine games with a 2.28 GAA and a .937 save %. In nine of those games, Schroeder has recorded four shutouts showing how dominant she can be against the best of the best in Women’s hockey.
She has logged almost 500 minutes of play this season and has only given 19 goals during that span, saving 284 of the 303 shots she’s faced.
The defending Isobel Cup champions are looking to repeat again, and thanks to Schroeder, their odds are looking good. If Schroeder can continue her high level of play, the Cup will return to Boston for another year where it belongs.
Schroeder and the rest of the Boston Pride will resume their season on January 6th when they take on the Connecticut Whale on the road at 7 PM EST.
