Helen Zeaske '26 Recruiting Profile

As a junior entering my fourth year playing Varsity hockey, I am working hard to earn the opportunity to play hockey at the college level. For Club hockey, I am the sole goalie on the NS Wings Red U19 team (hybrid 1/2, nt'l bound team). I have a save percentage of 94.3% as a first-year U19, with four shut-outs (GAA of 1.67). As the starting goalie at NMH as sophomore, I saw 30-60 shots per game against some of the top shooters at the high school level. I ended the season with a save percentage of 89%, an All-Conference (Vaillancourt Conference) and All-League (NEPSAC) Honorable Mention, and the 10th best SAA% in NEPSAC conference in my first year starting in goal.  For goalie training, I get lessons at the Ed Walsh Goaltending School (Ed Walsh / Cam Walsh) year round and they have coached me for the past five years. As I look at colleges, academics are a top priority for me and my GPA is 3.96/4.0 with High Honors. In high school, Civics and Honors Spanish are my favorite subjects and I hope to study History and Ancient Civilizations in college.  At school, I play volleyball (Captain of Thirds, and Coaches Award Winner) and lacrosse (Varsity, Goalie).  At NMH, I serve as a Tour Guide and Residence Leader. I look forward to continuing to put in the hard work it takes to grow as a student and a goalie in the coming years. I love the intensity of being a goalie and the focus it takes to lead a team from the net.
