Playing career

Vetter played as a goaltender on the boys' ice hockey team at Monona Grove High School and won three state girls' soccer championships. While in high school, she was a four-time all-conference selection and a three-time all-state pick in soccer.[3]

Wisconsin Badgers

In her four-year NCAA career, Vetter won an NCAA record 91 games (since broken by Hillary Pattenden[4]) during her four-year career and posted an NCAA-record 39 career shutouts.[5] She also held the record for most goalie shutouts in one season with 14 (accomplished in 2008–09),[6] since broken by another Badger goaltender, Ann-Renée Desbiens.

In her senior year at Wisconsin, Vetter went 30–2–5 with a 1.33 GAA, (2nd NCAA) and 0.936 Save percentage, (2nd NCAA). She also finished second in the NCAA in minutes played with 2162:16. She is a 2009 WCHA first team honoree, an all-tournament honoree, and the WCHA Final Face-Off MVP as Wisconsin won the League championship and garnered the top seed going into the NCAA championships.[7]

• In 2006, she became the first goalie to record a Frozen Four shutout when she notched two.[8]
• In 2006–07, Vetter and Christine Dufour combined for 15 shutouts. Vetter was voted the top goalie and had a 1.24 goals-against average and a save percentage of .932.[9]
• Vetter broke the NCAA single-season goals-against average record with a mark of 0.83 in 2006–07. As a result, that made her the first goalie in NCAA history to post a GAA below 1.00.[10] In that same season, Vetter recorded a shutout streak that reached 448 minutes and 32 seconds – the longest not only in NCAA women's hockey history but also in men's history.
• Vetter won 31 games and had 13 shutouts during the 2008–09 season.[11]
• She was the first ice hockey player to be named the Sportswoman of the Year by the Women's Sports Foundation.[12]

International career

At the 2009 Women's World Ice Hockey Championships, she allowed just a single goal. In addition, Vetter was the starting goaltender when the US won the 2008 Women's World Ice Hockey Championships.[13] Vetter collected a silver medal at the 2010 Olympic Winter Games and fetched for the final tips by former NHL Goalie Mike Richter.[14] In the gold medal game of the 2011 IIHF Women's World Championship against Canada, Vetter made 51 saves as the US won its third consecutive gold medal.[15]

Coaching career

In 2010–11, Vetter was an assistant coach for Madison (Wis.) Capitols 19-Under Tier I squad.[16] Her squad played in the USA Hockey National Championships from April 6–10.
