“Vetter, who grew up in #CottageGrove, Wisconsin and cut her hockey teeth playing with and against boys, was asked what set her apart.
“First of all, as a goalie, I was lucky to be a part of a lot of great teams. For me as an athlete, I was always told to work hard and have fun and I always took that to heart. I worked my butt off and always had a smile on my face from the beginning of practice to the end of practice and all throughout games, winning or losing. I just really enjoyed myself.”
During a four-season span from 2006-09, where Vetter was in net for the University of Wisconsin, the @BadgerWHockey team played in four consecutive NCAA championship games and prevailed in three (2006, ’07 and ’09).
