The USHL named its midseason USHL All-Star Teams for the Eastern and Western Conferences Thursday, a group of future NCAA stars that includes 21 players already committed to 17 different schools.

Recruiting

Minnesota Duluth, Nebraska Omaha, New Hampshire and North Dakota each had two recruits honored. UNO was represented by two First-Team Western Conference forwards, teammates with the Omaha Lancers in Jake Randolph and Tyler Vesel.

Eleven of the 16 USHL clubs had at least one player selected, led by the Omaha Lancers and Waterloo Black Hawks with four players each. The selections were determined by voting of USHL coaches and general managers.
