Women's college hockey projections draw primarily on high school and junior stats when available. Because most women go directly from HS to college, projections with limited pre-college data use conference-based priors.

NCAAe-W factors are derived from historical pre-college→NCAA-W transitions. For many players, projection confidence is lower than men's due to sparse pre-college tracking.
