GRAND FORKS, N.D. – University of North Dakota men’s hockey
coach Brad Berry unveiled the program’s 2017-18 schedule on Wednesday.
The 36-game regular season slate features four
non-conference series against former Western Collegiate Hockey Association
(WCHA) rivals: road matchups at Alaska Anchorage (Oct. 6-7) and Wisconsin (Nov.
3-4), a home series against Minnesota (Oct. 20-21), and a home-and-home set
with Bemidji State (Jan. 12-13).
The Minnesota series will mark the Golden Gophers’ first
visit to Grand Forks since Jan. 2012, when both were still members of the WCHA.
North Dakota’s other non-conference dates also include home
series against St. Lawrence (Oct. 13-14) and Union (Nov. 24-25). It will be
Union’s first-ever visit to Grand Forks.
The Fighting Hawks will open National Collegiate Hockey
Conference (NCHC) play at Colorado College on Oct. 27-28 and will host its
first NCHC series Nov. 10-11 against Miami.
Host sites for the 2018 NCAA Regionals will be announced by
the NCAA on April 18. The Xcel Energy Center in St. Paul, Minn., will host the
2018 NCAA Frozen Four.
UND went 21-16-3 overall in 2016-17 and advanced to the NCAA
Tournament for the 15th straight season, the second-longest streak in NCAA
Division I men’s hockey history behind only Michigan’s 22 from 1991 to 2012.
