Century mark for Genoway
Chay Genoway is 4 points away from hitting the 100 point total for his Fighting Sioux hockey career. Chay has played in 142 games (21g-75a-96pts). The next closes player for UND to reach the century club is Evan Trupp 123 games (26g-49a-75pts) and Jason Gregoire 95games (35g-39a-74pts) baring injury both players could have a good chance of hitting the century mark.
To trap or not to trap
The BADgers used to be known for being a boring trap first and offense second type of team, now the BADgers are proving that stereotype wrong. The BADgers ranked 3rd nationally in scoring offense (4.3 goals per game) and fourth in scoring defense (1.80).
