"Gender Check"
"Pickle Lake, Ontario - The son of a Baptist minister quit the town hockey
team because he felt squeamish changing in and out of his gear with the
sole female player in the room. His father demanded that the town council
force the woman to segregate herself. "I always wear long johns and have
never taken my T-shirt off," the exasperated female player told a
reporter. "I'm not an exhibitionist." A team official suggested that the
minister's son be the one to change elsewhere."
No ages were mentioned in the article, but assumedly we're talking teens
or earlier.

Subject: Update on Women's Upper Deck Hockey
Message-ID:
As I posted a couple months ago on this list, Upper Deck plans to include
Team Canada women's hockey team in the Collector's Choice hockey set for
the 1997-98. I just read in the latest issue of Beckett Hockey Monthly
that Upper Deck plans to have 8 players from Team Canada, and 8 players
from Team USA in the set.
This brings the interesting question of who Upper Deck plans to pick in
their set.
My personal choices are:
Team Canada:
Danielle Dube, Geraldine Heaney, Cassie Campbell, Hayley Wickenheiser, Judy
Diduck, Stacey Wilson, Nancy Drolet, Manon Rheaume (I know.. I know.. she
was cut from the team that played at the Worlds.. and she already has tons
of hockey cards.. but you cannot deny her tremendous popularity and this
would give her an "official" rookie card, as all you card buffs know,
Classic Hockey Cards are not officially recognized rookie cards).
Honourable Mentions to: Angela James, Danielle Goyette, Vicki Sunohara
Team USA
Erin Whitten, Tara Mounsey, Cammi Granato, Kelly O'Leary, Chris Bailey,
Laurie Baker, Alana Blahoski, Shelley Looney
Alan.

I agree with the team official...this is ridiculous. Nowhere does it say in
the Bible that children should not change their outer clothing in front of
each other. There's a lot in Leviticus and Deuteronomy about "uncovering
nakedness," but that refers to sexual intercourse. If this boy is so modest
about his body, he should be glad he isn't in a sport like swimming, diving,
volleyball or gymnastics, which leave a lot less to the imagination (even
fully clothed) than hockey.
BTW, this is something that has been driving me nuts for months. There's a
guy on AOL who claims that he tracked down a woman who played professionally
for a low minor team in Marquette, Michigan in the *1970's*. The story is
full of holes and I'm inclined to believe it's a hoax, but I wanted to know
if anyone else had heard of this. The fellow who's claiming this started a
file on women's hockey with the header "was Manon really the first?" and told
me privately that this goalie had actually appeared on the cover of Time (she
hadn't - I checked their index). I also checked the family collection of THN
back to the late 70's, and there wasn't so much as a peep, even in the
stories covering Manon Rheaume, Vicky Sunohara and Erin Whitten.
This supposedly happened for the Marquette Iron Rangers of the old USHL in
the 1975-1976 season. The woman was named Karen Koch, and she was allegedly
cut from the team for (get this) refusing to a wear a mask after three games.
Records from that league are fragmentary, so it's impossible to tell from
what stats have survived whether anyone named Karen (or Kerry, or Carey, or
Ken) Koch played goal for the Iron Rangers. An interview with Karen Koch
appeared in a publication called Just Hockey, and the person who's been
publicizing it on AOL is one of the editors.
If ANYONE has independent confirmation of this, I'd be extremely grateful.
If it's true, Karen Koch deserves to be honored. If it isn't, the story
should be squelched before it shows up in a history of hockey in twenty years
or so.
Thanks in advance.....

I find it inconceivable that a story this big

As the mother of a hockey playing daughter with friends who seem to have
more birthdays than there are days in the year, I WANT these cards. Where
and when will they be available. How many more funky T-shirts can I give
out on those special days!
