MADISON ON ABELLO: “Mia carries a big stick with a big hit. She will impact our backfield significantly. When she steps on the field, her eyes get big. She flips the on switch and doesn’t turn it off until the final whistle. Her big and small passing game is a weapon coupled with the ability to explode up the field with the ball on her stick. Her hockey IQ is beyond her years. Once she adapts to Division I and ACC hockey, she will be a force to be reckoned with.”
