No Short Cuts for Matt Hrynkiw

3/10/2017

Fighting Hawks Ready to Travel

1/27/2017

This season, playing at home has been the University of North Dakota’s Kryptonite. In the past 10 games at Ralph Engelstad Arena, the Fighting Hawks are 2-6-2 (.300). Losing games at home is very uncharacteristic of the Hawks. Traditionally, UND has been very tough to beat at home. Before the 10-game slide,  UND was 31-2-2 in […]
