- Class: Senior
- Honors: Breakdown Super 100 seniors
- Coach comment: "Molly is a player who will go all out, every shift. She is not the biggest girl on the ice, but will go up against anyone and won't back down. Her aggressive nature on the ice provides a spark for our team at different points throughout a game. I look for her to provide more offensive output this year and for her to be a leader for our team." — New Ulm coach Kristin Faber
Q and A
Give me a short scouting report on yourself as a player. What are your strengths?
- I am an unselfish player and a leader. I am very passionate on the ice, which sometimes lands me in the box.
Can you tell us one unusual thing about yourself that others may not know?
- When I was a Mite, I quit playing hockey because they wanted me to play with the girls, but I only wanted to play with the boys.
What's the best part of playing high school hockey and why?
- The friendships because you play with the same girls year after year.
Tell me about the outlook for your team this year. What are the strengths of your team?
- We have some strong defensive players returning. We lost a lot of seniors this past year, but we have a talented group of younger girls moving up.
What other activities are you involved in at the high school level?
- Hockey, soccer, track and field, and National Honor Society.
What type of training do you do in the offseason?
- Summer 4v4 leagues and tournament teams. I also stay in shape by playing on a C1 summer soccer team.

With the high school sports world on pause, THE BREAKDOWN wants to make sure these athletes are recognized for their accomplishments on the field, court, rink, diamond, etc.
The schedule of spotlight players will be as follows:
- Monday: softball
- Tuesday: baseball
- Wednesday: girls' volleyball
- Thursday: boys' and girls' basketball
- Friday: boys' and girls' hockey
Each of our spotlight players will have action and posed photos, as well as the Q and A information they provided for this past year's Breakdown book in their respective sport.
