Incoming University of Denver freshmen Drew Shore, Matt Donovan and William Wrenn have been named to the U.S. World Junior Team evaluation camp, scheduled for Aug. 7-15 in Lake Placid, N.Y.
The 43-man roster also includes incoming Colorado College freshman John Moore and Littleton native Sean Lorenz, a sophomore-to-be at Notre Dame.
The final roster will be announced in December, about two weeks before the 2010 World Junior Championship begins Dec. 26 in Saskatoon and Regina, Sask.
Former Avalanche coach Tony Granato will play a role in the decision-making process, serving as camp evaluator under head coach Dean Blais.
