North Dakota's Brock Boeser - a first-round pick of Vancouver in June - has 3 goals and 4 points thus far at Team USA's Evaluation Camp.

Nineteen NCAA representatives are among the 32 players who will remain at the U.S. National Junior Team Evaluation Camp for the remaining four days of the camp in Lake Placid, N.Y.

“As a staff, we have been very pleased with the competitiveness of the 39 players in camp,” said Jim Johannson, USA Hockey’s assistant executive director of hockey operations and the general manager of the 2016 U.S. National Junior Team. “The three remaining games this week provide an opportunity for our head coach, Ron Wilson, to be on the bench with the players to continue to grow our identity and team principles. We will continue to evaluate the players released today along with some others not in Lake Placid throughout the fall.”

The camp continues with practices and games against Finland on Wednesday (Aug. 5), Sweden on Thursday (Aug. 6) and Finland on Saturday (Aug. 8). All contests will be played the Olympic Center’s 1980 Herb Brooks Arena.

Ten schools have participants remaining in camp, led by Boston College with four players. Michigan has three representatives, including Detroit Red Wings signee Dylan Larkin. Boston University has two defensemen - Brandon Fortunato and Charles McAvoy - while a third, Jonathan MacLeod, will not participate in the rest of camp for precautionary reasons.

The Swedish team competing in Lake Placid features three incoming freshmen: Jakob Forsbacka-Karlsson (Boston University), William Lagesson (Massachusetts) and Fredrik Olofsson (Omaha).

The players are auditioning for spots on the U.S. National Junior Team that will take part in the 2015 International Ice Hockey Federation World Junior Championship, Dec. 26, 2015–Jan. 5, 2016, in Helsinki, Finland.
