Jutting Coaches at Select 15 Festival

Minnesota State coach Troy Jutting is back behind the bench this summer, coaching Team Black at USA Hockey's Select 15 Festival in St. Cloud this week. Jutting is the only NCAA head coach to be coaching at the camp, though a number of assistant coaches from around college hockey are also participating. Jutting's Black team is 1-1 after two days after winning their first game and then falling in the second.

The coaching opportunity should give Jutting an up-close look on the top young players in the country, as well as help develop relationships with future recruits. Some of the players Jutting will be coaching include Roseau defenseman Ryan Weston, Centennial forward Tyler Pitlick, and forward Ryan Bourque, the son of legendary NHL defenseman Ryan Bourque.
