Narrative:

Training flight; PF left seat; instructor in right seat. VFR patterns for crosswind tol practice; winds reported by ASOS 050 degrees/13 KTS. Simulated engine failure exercise at 250 ft AGL; PF turned into the wind (left) in attempt to return to the runway. Instructor called for go around at 70 degrees into the turn (060 magnetic). Student (PF) applied full power and pitched up. Unusual 'sink' encountered; wings level. Aircraft struck 1 treetop; damaging left wing; left lift strut; left horizontal stabilizer and left elevator. PF landed on without further incident.
