Uma Conriea
Princeton
Hello everyone! My name is Uma Corniea and I will be a sophomore goalie on the Princeton
Women’s Ice Hockey Team. My major is in Politics with a minor in Religion. I am from Edina, Minnesota where I played varsity hockey and varsity lacrosse and was captain of both the
lacrosse and hockey teams my senior year. We won a MN State Hockey title in 2021 and placed
in the top 3 my other three years! I also participated at the varsity level while attending Breck School where I won my first 2 State High School Hockey Championships as a 7th and 8th grader.
I was an Academic All-American as well as a Senior Goalie of the Year Finalist for Lacrosse,
when we finished as the state runner-up, and won Senior Goalie of the Year for Hockey in 2023. I am a 3x USA Hockey Goaltending Camp Invitee, 2024 USA Hockey National Festival Invitee, I was named the Edina Athena Award Winner which is given to the top female student athlete, and I hold the MN State High School Hockey Records for both Shutouts and Wins!
During my high school hockey and lacrosse careers, I underwent severe hip surgery that came with a long journey of recovery in 2021 and also suffered a major concussion during my freshman year of college. Throughout my journey as a student-athlete, I have learned many valuable lessons that have not only helped me grow in my career as an athlete, but have shaped who I am as a person! I strive to help others become the best version of themselves, so I am more than grateful to have the opportunity to help mentor you to become who you want to be! Through our work in the mentorship program I will guide you in:
● Setting individualized athletic and personal goals and formulating a plan to carry out said
goals
● Managing pressure and performance anxiety to help you maximize all the joy sports has
to offer while performing at your best!
● Navigating the stressful college recruiting process
● Overcoming the mental obstacles of injury and identifying other avenues to improve
when sidelined
With my vast experience in numerous environments I can provide tools to help guide you on your journey to becoming the best version of yourself in athletics, academics, and your personal life! I can’t wait to get started!
