COLUMBUS, Ohio — Jenna Buglioni is set to captain the Ohio State women’s hockey team in 2024-25.

The fifth-year forward will don the “C” for the reigning national champions alongside teammates Amanda Thiele, Riley Brengman and Makenna Webster, who will all serve as assistant captains.

The Buckeyes start competition this fall in a home series against WCHA rival Minnesota Duluth on Sept. 21-22.
