A Milestone Commitment
Adie Schneider revealed her college choice on Instagram, marking a historic moment for Penn State women's hockey. The 16‑year‑old forward said she is eager to begin the next chapter as a Nittany Lion, a sentiment that resonated with fans and coaches alike.
Schneider currently skates for the Delta Hockey Academy U18 Prep Team, where she has already distinguished herself as one of the league’s top rookies. In 30 games this season she recorded 52 points, including 24 goals and 28 assists, finishing second among first‑year players in the Canadian Sport School Hockey League.
Her performance earned her a spot on the CSSHL under‑18 British Columbia freshman all‑star team, a testament to her offensive skill and consistency on the ice.

The milestone underscores a strong developmental pathway for the young athlete, who will now transition to the NCAA level. Penn State’s coaching staff highlighted her vision, work ethic and ability to contribute immediately to the program’s offensive depth.
The commitment also reflects the growing appeal of Penn State’s women’s hockey program, which continues to attract top talent from both the United States and Canada. As the Nittany Lions look ahead to the upcoming season, Schneider’s arrival adds a promising new dimension to their roster.
