National College Hockey Polls



GRAND FORKS, N.D. – The University of North Dakota remained ranked No. 7 in the USCHO.com and USA Today/USA Hockey Magazine men’s college hockey polls, both of which were released on Monday.

North Dakota, 12-6-3 overall, maintained its ranking after a National Collegiate Hockey Conference (NCHC) sweep at Omaha last weekend. NCHC rival Denver took over the top spot from Minnesota Duluth in both polls after a sweep of Arizona State.

UND returns home to Ralph Engelstad Arena on Friday and Saturday to host unranked Miami.
