She was the winner of the 2010 Patty Kazmaier Award, awarded to the top player in women's NCAA hockey. She was also selected for the Canadian national women's team that will compete in the 2010 Four Nations Cup. Bendus was the leading scorer at the 2011 MLP Cup. In the 2011 CWHL Draft, she was selected fourth overall.[1]

Playing career

Mercyhurst

  • During the 2008–09 Mercyhurst Lakers women's ice hockey season, Bendus was named assistant captain. She had a seven-game point scoring streak from Nov. 14 through Dec. 12, and registered four multiple-point contests and two game-winners during that span. She recorded a goal in four straight games from Nov. 21 through Dec. 6. From Feb. 13 through Feb. 27, she recorded 10 assists in five-game span.
  • On March 13, 2010, Bendus scored the 50th career goal of her career in the win over the Boston University Terriers. She is now the 8th Laker to have at least 50 goals in a career.[2]
  • In addition, Bendus is also a member of the Mercyhurst women’s golf team. In the 2008-09 golf season, she helped the Lakers get to NCAA Division I Golf national final.[3]

Hockey Canada

Bendus won a gold medal at the Canada Winter Games with Team Ontario in 2007. On January 10, 2010, Bendus scored a goal and added two assists for the Canadian national women's under-22 team in the gold medal game of the 2010 MLP Cup. Canada defeated Switzerland, 9-0 in Ravensburg, Germany. The Canadian team won all four of their games by a combined score of 24-4, and secured their seventh goal medal in the past eight years. In three games, Bendus, Jesse Scanzano and Bailey Bram (from the Mercyhurst Lakers women's ice hockey team) combined for seven goals and 18 points.[4] Benuds and Bram were tied for the tournament lead in scoring, and Bendus was named the tournament's top forward.[5]

On October 6, 2010, Bendus was selected to play for the National Women's Team that will play in the 2010 Four Nations Cup.[6] Bendus scored one of the six goals in the gold medal game of the 2011 MLP Cup.[7] In addition, she was the captain of the team.
