The University of Utah Hockey has received a commitment from Forward Sonia Charman for the upcoming 2023-24 season.
Sunny was born in Whitefish, Montana. She comes from a hockey family and started skating at the age of four. She grew up playing with her older brothers on their backyard rink. She has played on boys’ teams her whole life usually being one of two girls on the team.
In her junior year of high school, she played on the Missoula Bruins U19 girl’s tier 2 team in the Western Girls Hockey League. During her sophomore and senior year, she played on the Missoula Bruins junior varsity boys travel team.
When she’s not playing hockey, she plays lacrosse and in her free time, she enjoys walking her dogs, playing the piano, hiking in local mountains, and swimming in local lakes.
“Sunny is a player who is hard working and not afraid to go into the hard places. She is dangerous, with a hard shot. We wouldn’t be surprised to see her score a lot of goals this upcoming year,” said Women’s Division 1 Head Coach Rodney Stedt.
Charman plans to study Criminology at the U.
Utah Hockey would like to welcome Sunny and wish her the absolute best in the upcoming season
