UMD PAGE AND INFORMATION THE DULUTHGOES COMMUNITY HERE

LIKE NOWHERE ELSE Hiking amid the dense white pines that grow down to the rocky coast, one can hear the cry of seagulls and the distant wail of a foghorn as the mighty waves crash against the shore, covering the lush green vegetation with a fine mist. A scene out of a remote spot in the Pacific Northwest, right? No, it’s Duluth. Straining against the incessant tug of gravity, you make your way up the steep cobblestone sidewalks of the bustling downtown. The air is filled with the honking horns of cars, cabs and busses. Mingling with the sea air is the wafting s c e n t o f f r e s h l y b a ke d bread coming from one of the ethnic grocery stores, restaurants, and bakeries in the tightly packed neighborhood. You’re walking the streets of San Francisco, right? No, it’s Duluth. The boardwalk is simply alive today. Down the street from the casino, and in front of hundreds of waterfront hotel rooms, there is every mixture of people enjoying the gentle breeze off the water. Tourists mingle with businessmen on their lunch break, and in-line skaters zoom past a mime entertaining the kids as couples check out the galleries and coffeehouses that line the sun-splashed strip. Is it Atlantic City, Miami Beach, or Santa Monica? No, it’s Duluth.

A MEETING PLACE

2

C entur i es b efore t he f ir s t Nat i ve Americans pitched their teepees and launched their primitive canoes in the waters of the massive lake they called “Gitchee Gummee,” there were countless meetings in the place that would come to be known as Duluth. The crashing waves of Lake Superior came here to meet the churning waters of the St. Louis River. Those meetings of natural forces formed a 10-mile long strand of sand where, on warm summer days, you will find thousands of modern-day Twin Ports visitors shedding the wraps of winter and meeting the rays of the sun. And that stretch of beach, now known as Park Point, provided a huge natural harbor where everything from tiny canoes to immense ocean-going ships, can find shelter from the wind and waves of the great lake. Around this natural harbor where the lake met the river, cities grew. Today, Duluth and its Twin Ports partner, Superior, Wisconsin, are viewed as meeting places more than ever. It is here that small-town truckers in jeans and feed caps haul loads of grain down to the giant elevators next to the docks. More than 1,000 miles from the salt waters of the nearest ocean, they meet sea captains from ports from every corner of the globe who will haul that wheat, corn, and barley east through the Great Lakes and the St. Lawrence Seaway, then across the Atlantic Ocean to foreign ports.

Mile-long trains loaded with iron ore and taconite pellets from the mines of Minnesota’s Iron Range come to Duluth to fill ships (commonly called lakers) that will haul their goods to the steel mills of Indiana, Ohio, and Pennsylvania. There, the ore will be used to make the structural steel for buildings of the future and for the automobile frames being designed for use in the new century. A vibrant tourism industry brings in countless visitors from throughout the Midwest to shop, eat, relax, and be entertained by the endless variety of things to see and do in and around the Twin Ports. Goods are for sale in every variety, from tiny galleries where local artisans display seagull figurines carved from the driftwood found along the shore of Lake Superior, to sleek modern shopping malls filled with the latest designer fashions. Diners choose from options like grabbing a quick burger and a soda on their way to the game, or sitting down to hot coffee, a bowl of steaming chowder and warm apple pie, or savoring prime rib and fine wine at a linen-covered table in a four-star restaurant. For active visitors, Duluth and the surrounding area offer every kind of

outdoor recreation imaginable, from hiking, kayaking, sailing, and biking along the rugged shore of the lake, to first-class downhill and cross- countr y skiing, snowmobiling, and dog-sledding that takes advantage of the area’s c o m m o n l a ke - e f f e c t snows to provide the finest winter recreation conditions between the Adirondacks and the Rockies. Dozens of open spaces in and around the city are complemented by a lakewalk that stretches for miles from Canal Park up the North Shore, passing countless parks, monuments, and places to sit and ponder the inland ocean, and providing ample outdoor opportunities for walkers, bikers, skaters, or those who favor a horse-drawn carriage ride. No wonder Outdoor Magazine listed Duluth as the Best Town in America this past June. And, for those who like to take their entertainment sitting down, Duluth, quite literally, offers something for all interests. Broadway entertainment and dozens of movie

THOSE WHO CAN ... DULUTH For more than 100 years, the modest teacher’s college that has grown and evolved into the University of Minnesota Duluth has been offering students of all ages and interests a window into the opportunities that come with knowledge. The University of Minnesota system (which has campuses in Minneapolis, St. Paul, Morris, Rochester and Crookston, as well as Duluth) was started by an act of the Territorial Legislature in 1851, seven years before Minnesota achieved statehood. It took another 44 years before public higher education came to the north woods with the opening of the Duluth Normal School in 1895. Renamed Duluth State Teacher’s College in 1921, the school became a coordinate c ampus of the Univer s it y of Minnesota in 1947. The modern-day UMD has a campus communit y of nearly 11,30 0 students pursuing 15 bachelor’s degrees in 85 majors and 68 minors, graduate programs in 23 different fields, and three Ph.D. programs. In addition, UMD offers a College of Pharmacy program and a two-year program at the School of Medicine through t h e M i n n e s o t a -Tw i n C i t i e s campus. A university with a unique combination of quality and value, UMD consistently ranks among the top Midwestern, regional universities in U.S. News & World Report’s “America’s Best Colleges” issue.

of the lake during concerts, including the region’s annual Bayfest Blues Festival. For the sports fan, Duluth is home to a Northwoods Baseball League franchise, one of the nation’s most prominent marathons each summer, a major dog sled race each winter, and top-level intercollegiate athletic competition in the form of the 16 teams who wear the maroon and gold of the Univer sit y of Minnesota Duluth Bulldogs. When it comes to staying up to date on what ’s happening around town, around the region, and around the globe, Duluthians enjoy four local television stations, several print media outlets and more radio stations per capita (in ever y available format) than nearly any community in the nation. Duluth’s television and radio stations—which, in terms of geographic reach, are located in one of the country’s largest markets— cover news, sports, and weather in the Twin Ports, northern Minnesota and

a b o u t 2 ,0 0 0 e m p l oye e s , including 491 full-time and another 128 part-time faculty, UMD draws students who come to Duluth and call it their home during their college years and beyond. Unlike t h e s p r aw l i n g c o m m u te r schools of the Midwest’s metropolitan areas, where parking spaces out-number library periodicals, UMD is a community where close to a third of the undergraduate population resides in the many on-campus housing options or in the historic neighborhoods surrounding the campus. Comprising some 50 buildings (all constructed since 1948) and set on 244 acres of residential land with scenic views of Lake Superior, the UMD campus is a city unto itself, with housing, dining facilities, a theater, a p l a n et a r i u m , r e s e a r c h laboratories, athletic venues, parks, wilderness areas, radio and television studios, a newspaper, the latest computer technology, medical facilities, shopping, enter tainment, and a state- of-the-ar t librar y which merges the print and digital worlds, providing students with the region’s most a d va n c e d gateway to i nfo r mat i o n. Dedicated in August 2000, the UMD Library was a $26- million project that provides the campus with nearly 168,000 square feet of new space and room for more than 200 laptop and desktop computers. Since the turn of the 21st century, UMD has added $200 million worth of new projects (including the Library), some of the latest being the Sports and Health Center Addition ($13 million, opened 2006), the Life Science Renovation ($15 million, opened 2006) the Labovitz School of Business and Economics ($23 million, opened 2008), the Bagley Environmental Classroom ($1 million, opened 2009), the Swenson Civil Engineering Building ($15 million, opened 2010) and the Lawrence A. Ianni Hall ($14 million, opened 2011.) In a community like Duluth-Superior, with its metro population of over 125,000 and its amazingly diverse economy, opportunities for internships, employment, and on-thejob education abound, giving countless UMD graduates a much-desired chance to make their permanent home and start their careers in the area. Here, where the ability to transport goods over water created an economy and several communities, transportation is in abundant supply. A major hub for the region, the Twin Ports is connected by numerous fourlane interstate freeways and major U.S. highways. Minneapolis-St. Paul is less than a three-hour drive away, and destinations like Madison, Milwaukee, and Chicago can be reached by car in less than half a day. And, the Duluth International Airport is served by several national/ regional airlines, with daily nonstop flights to Minneapolis-St. Paul, Chicago and Detroit in addition to regular seasonal flights to Orlando, Las Vegas and Phoenix.

BULLDOG ATHLETICS

Now in its 86th year of operation, the University of Minnesota Duluth Department of Intercollegiate Athletics continues to maintain one of the most competitive and well-balanced sports programs of its size in the country. Fourteen of UMD’s 16 teams—baseball, men’s and women’s basketball, men’s and women’s cross country, football, women’s soccer, softball, women’s tennis, men’s and women’s indoor and outdoor track and field, and volleyball—are members of the 16-member NCAA Division II Northern Sun Intercollegiate Conference. The NCAA Division I men’s and women’s hockey programs, meanwhile, are aligned with the eight-team National Collegiate Hockey Conference (which debuted in 2013-14) and the eight-school Western Collegiate Hockey Association, respectively. UMD’s 2015-16 athletic season concluded with an All-American outdoor track performance by junior Breanna Colbenson on Memorial Day weekend and over the course of the previous nine months, the Bulldogs experienced a multitude of highlights -- including a few program firsts -- in each of the three C’s (classroom, competition and community). Those noteworthy achievements included: • UMD produced 13 All-Americans, including senior first baseman Alex Wojciechowski, who was selected the NCAA Division II National Player of the Year by a five different organizations Colbenson, meanwhile, hit the All-American trifecta -- cross country, indoor track and outdoor track and was the United States Track & Field and Cross Country Coaches Association Central Region Outdoor Track Athlete of the Year while her teammate, sophomore Emilee Trost, received that same honor for the indoor track season after reigning as the conference meet’s top point producer. Wojciechowski, Colbenson (outdoor track) and Trost (indoor track) all received NSIC Player/Athlete of the Year citations in their respective sports as well. •The Bulldog men’s hockey team advanced to their first-ever NCHC Frozen Four tournament in Minneapolis (where they

In 2011-12, senior center Jack Connolly became just the second Bulldog to attain All-American status three times. fell to St. Cloud State in the title game) and the following week appeared in the NCAA Northeast Regional championship for the second consecutive season before being upended 3-2 by Boston College. The Bulldogs, who qualified for their fourth NCAA playoff berth in six years (something which had never been done in program history) and were one of just three teams to appear in a Regional final the past two winters, held down the No. 9 spot in the final USCHO.com Poll. •The women’s cross country Bulldogs seized team crowns at all four of their regular season meets and then ran off with the NSIC title as well. UMD qualified for its third straight (and seventh overall) NCAA II Championship and, behind All-Americans Colbenson and Trost, went on to place seventh. •Under the direction of first-year head coach

Maura Crowell, UMD hit the road for the first round of the WCHA women’s playoffs and downed No. 7 Bemidji State in back-toback games for its first series sweep over a ranked opponent in over three years thereby reaching the WCHA semifinals, a feat it missed in two of the prior three seasons. •Although they fell just short of making the NCAA II football playoffs for an eighth consecutive season (which would have been the second longest active run in the country), the Bulldogs still claimed their eighth NSIC North Division title in as many years. •Senior setter Ashley Hinsch became just the second four-time American Volleyball Coaches Association All-American in the storied history of UMD volleyball. She also captained the 2015 Bulldogs to a 23-8 record and a No. 10 rating in the final AVCA Association poll. During the early stages of the season, UMD held down the AVCA Polls’ No. 1 spot for a school-record four weeks. •Jen Walter took over the Bulldog softball head coaching responsibilities and debuted in style, directing her troops to the most NSIC wins in program history. UMD went 35-17 overall and 21-7 in NSIC play to gain a share of second place in the league standings -- just one game back of regular season champion Minnesota State University-Mankato. For the first time since 2012, the Bulldogs also earned a NCAA Division II Central 2 Regional berth. •UMD’s historic baseball season came to a close at the NCAA II Central Regionals, but not before the Bulldogs established a team record for victories (39, including a programbest 18 in a row during the last three weeks in April) and captured their first NSIC crown in 17 years. In all, some 56 team and individual career, single-season and single-game marks fell by the wayside and leading the onslaught was Wojciechowski. Selected by the Philadelphia Phillies in the 15th round of the 2016 Major League Draft, Wojciechowski exited the Bulldog program as its all-time hits, home runs, doubles, RBI, slugging percentage and total base leader. This past spring, he belted 33 homers and drove in 101 runs -- both of which were just three shy of matching the NCAA II single-season record.

4 UMD has collectively won eight national titles -- all since 2001 -- including the men’s NCAA Frozen Four title six years ago.


As much as UMD has accomplished on the field of play since the inception of intercollegiate athletics on campus 80odd years ago, it has also maintained an equally strong and proud tradition of academically preparing its student-athletes. And, it has the numbers to prove it. Case in point: Since 1987-88, nearly 94 percent of those student-athletes who participated in a varsity sport for at least four years have graduated. In 2015-16, 84 different Bulldogs qualified for a spot on the NSIC All-Academic Team while 29 others secured either NCHC (18 men) or WCHA (11 women) AllAcademic Team status. Overall, UMD’s 394 student-athletes, which includes redshirted freshmen, posted an alltime high collective GPA of 3.181 in 2015-16 and of that group, 92 achieved GPAs of 3.50 or above and eight turned in perfect 4.00 marks. The volleyball Bulldogs registered the best GPA (3.45) of any UMD team during the 2015-16 school year while women’s cross country (3.42) and women’s ice hockey (3.36) were next. On the individual front, junior track and cross country standout Breanna Colbenson received 2015-16 CoSIDA Academic All-American (second team) recognition. In addition, six UMD seniors from five different sports were bestowed with a NSIC Myles Brand All-Academic With Distinction Award (for maintaining a 3.75 GPA as a collegian) -- Taylor Dillinger (women’s basketball), Jake Harder (men’s basketball), Kate McMahon (soccer), Katie Peterson (soccer), Sami Schnyder (softball) and Kaitlin Wohnoutka (tennis). Harder, one of three Bulldogs -- Charles Benson and Jake Wilson were the others -- to make the National Association of Basketball Coaches Honors Court, and Wohnoutka both closed out their respective collegiate ca-

reers by landing the 2015-16 E.L. “Duce” Rasmussen Award (UMD’s top senior male and female scholar-athletes). Senior Mark Nahorniak was cited as a 2015-16 National Football Foundation Hampshire Honor Society selection in recognition of his exemplary academic achievements while USTFCCCA All-Academic Cross Country acclaim was awarded to five Bulldog females (Colbenson, Hannah Olson, Amber Seidenkranz, Erica Seidenkranz, and Emi Trost) and one UMD male (Grant Pulver). Colbenson, Olson and Chanel Miller nailed down USTFCCCA All-Academic Track and Field distinction as well. The UMD men and women both qualified as a USTFCCCA All-Academic Team in cross country for compiling a

PAGE INFORMATION AMSOIL ARENA GOES HERE 6

The night of Dec. 30, 2010, was truly a defining moment for the University of Minnesota Duluth men’s hockey program. With one drop of the puck on that particular evening, the Bulldogs went from playing in the Western Collegiate Hockey Association’s oldest facility to the newest rink in the nation -- not to mention one of the best! Construction of the 6,756-seat AMSOIL Arena, which is just a few hundred yards away from the venerable Duluth Entertainment and Convention Center arena, UMD’s former home since the 1966-67 season, began in April 2009. In all, the $80 million facility was a true collaborative effort, with the State of Minnesota funding half of the cost through general obligation bonds, the City of Duluth providing 27 percent of the cost through a voter-approved food and beverage tax, UMD funding 12 percent and the DECC funding the remaining 11 percent. At first glance, AMSOIL Arena brings to mind a striking contrast with other top-notch National Collegiate Hockey Conference/Western Collegiate Hockey Association rinks and some familiar similarities to the old DECC. Set foot inside NCHC rinks like Ralph Engelstad Arena (the University of North Dakota), and one is immediately struck by their sheer vast size. By contrast, a step onto the ice surface at AMSOIL Arena causes many to notice that despite having more than 1,600 additional seats, it’s as intimate as the “old” DECC, with the lower bowl of seats hugging the ice surface and the upper level seats hanging seemingly right over the ice. Truly, there’s not a bad seat in the house. While the DECC was known as a great place to watch a game, the level of

fan comfort is taken to new heights inside AMSOIL Arena. From simple things like seat width and leg room to necessities like additional restroom facilities, fan comfort and convenience are the hallmarks of the Bulldogs’ new digs. Designers took cues from other successful and popular sports facilities and incorporated fanfriendly touches like an open concourse around much of the lower seating bowl, meaning that a trip to one of the numerous concession stands will not mean missing

any of the on-ice action. And, if they do, there is a $1 million, 8’ x 14’ matrix scoreboard hung above center ice, which provides in-game replays, videos, and graphics in 10-millimeter LED display. AMSOIL Arena, which hosted the NCAA Women’s Frozen Four in 2012, is also equipped with something the DECC never had — private suites, some 15 in all. In addition, the Champions Lodge, located on the main level adjacent to one of the college hockey’s finest and most spacious


pools (one of which features a treadmill in its base) and other amenities that rival any other school in the nation. The hallways throughout the Bulldog locker room areas are covered with historical photos and artwork, conveying the storied history of both the men’s and women’s programs. And, in a place where abundant natural wonders and respect for the environment have always been a hallmark of life for Minnesotans, AMSOIL Arena was built with an eye toward sustainability, and has received the top Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) accreditation available. It didn’t take long for the Bulldogs’ new home to attract some big-time national

press boxes, serves as a gathering space for UMD athletic donors, alumni and supporters. At the other end of the hallway is the Hall of Fame Suite, which holds up to 34 people and contains plaques of the 30-plus Bulldog men and women hockey alums and coaches who are members of the UMD Athletic Hall of Fame. Outside, a new skywalk link connects the extended parking ramp to AMSOIL Arena, leading spectators into what is known as the “Ice Cube”. With soft mood lighting and an aquatic –themed terrazzo floor, the second-level commons area evokes images of Lake Superior. Traveling from one level to another you can see the downtown skyline in one direction and the Duluth harbor in the other. Although AMSOIL Arena will be used for conventions, concerts (with seating for nearly 9,000) and other sporting events, it’s is first and foremost the home of UMD hockey, This is readily apparent by the generous splashes of maroon and gold and the frequent use of the Bulldog logo throughout the facility. A large student bench seat section on the south end of the rink (where UMD attacks twice) should give the Bulldogs that much more of a home-ice advantage. On the lower level, out of sight for most visitors, but on full display for current and potential future Bulldogs, are some of the real “goodies”. Those include a state-of-the-art hockey offices and facilities, a weight room and athletic training center, player’s lounges, two large hydro therapy

attention. The Wall Street Journal named AMSOIL Arena as one of its 10 “Golden Zamboni” award winners for its uniqueness among the nation’s college hockey venues. AMSOIL Arena was cited by the WSJ because “ … it oozes local flavor. Bar tops in the fire-placed warmed Bulldog Club Lounge are made from local taconite rock, flecked with red iron; walls are inlaid with Minnesota stone and the decorative panels are made of wood salvaged from old grain elevators. On the (concourse) walls are quotations from a handful of folks, including Duluth’s two biggest local celebrities: frozen-pizza impresario Jeno Paulucci and Bob Dylan.”

PAGE HEADINFORMATION COACH SCOTTGOES SANDELIN HERE 10 10

When Scott Sandelin accepted his first collegiate head coaching job with the University of Minnesota Duluth shortly after the new millennium, his primary mission was to make the Bulldogs a perennial force on the national collegiate hockey landscape and ultimately bring home the program’s first NCAA championship. Mission accomplished. On April 9, 2011, Sandelin and the Bulldogs, before a sold-out Xcel Energy Center crowd of over 19,000, toppled the University of Michigan 3-2 in overtime to cap off a season for the ages. For the first time in its nearly seven-decade history, UMD was indeed college hockey’s top ‘Dog! But the Bulldogs have been anything but one-hit wonders. Over the past eight seasons, they’ve gone 165-117-38 while making five NCAA Tournament appearances (2009, 2011, 2012, 2015 and 2016), posting five National Collegiate Hockey Conference/ Western Collegiate Hockey Association upper-division finishes and piecing together five, 21-win campaigns. During the course of the 2011-12 season, UMD set a club record by going unbeaten in 17 straight games and was ranked first in both major weekly polls (USCHO.com and USA Today/USA Hockey) for a program-best nine consecutive weeks. Sandelin, the 2003-04 Spencer Penrose Award winner (American Hockey Coaches Association NCAA I Coach of the Year) and the runnerup for that honor four winters ago, enters the 2016-17 season -- his 17th as the Bulldogs’ bench boss -- sporting a 287-27775 overall record and having helped produce two Hobey Baker Memorial Award winners (Jack Connolly in 2011-12 and Junior Lessard in 2003-04), six NCAA I All-Americans (including three-time pick Jack Connolly), and 18 All-NCHC/WCHA honorees. He’s also seen some 16 of his UMD pupils go on to do time in the National Hockey League. In March 2009, Sandelin’s Bulldogs laid claim to the WCHA playoff title (becoming, in the process, the first play-in game participant in the 17-year history of the WCHA Final Five to win it all) before advancing all

the way to the NCAA West Regional Final. Four seasons earlier, UMD was named the preseason league favorite in the Grand Forks Herald WCHA Coaches Poll for the first time ever and, in mid-October of that year, occupied the No. 1 spot in a national poll (uscho.com and the USA Today/USA Hockey Magazine) for the first time in 15 years. Over the Christmas Holidays that winter, Sandelin displayed his coaching wares on the international stage as the head coach of Team USA at the 2004 IIHF World Junior Hockey Championships. He worked in an assistant coaching capacity at that same event in 2012. The 52-year old Sandelin (8/8/64) turned UMD into a NCAA Frozen Four participant for the first time in nearly a generation in 2003-04 while shepherding the Bulldogs to their most victories (they were 28-13-4 in all

outings) and highest WCHA finish (second place on a 19-7-2 mark) since the 1992-93 season. UMD also sported the nation’s second-highest scoring team, and, during the course of the year, strung together a school-record 14-game unbeaten streak. For his efforts, he was chosen the WCHA Coach of the Year as well as the national coach of the year by both insidecollegehockey.com and uscho.com. Sandelin’s 2002-03 Bulldogs racked up their best overall mark (22-15-5) in a decade while experiencing the greatest one-year turnaround of any WCHA club. UMD ended that season as one of country’s hottest clubs, going unbeaten in 12 of its final 16 games (11-4-1) and capturing third place at the WCHA Final Five playoff championship. One year earlier, he directed the Bulldogs to a 13-24-1 record in all games -- nearly doubling the number of victories from the previous season (7-28-4). In addition to amassing its most goals in five years, UMD also ranked fifth in the nation in power play scores (47) that season. Prior to officially becoming the Bulldogs’ 12th head coach on March 31, 2000, Sandelin served with the University of North Dakota coaching staff for six years, including the last three as an associate head coach. During his tenure in Grand Forks, North Dakota laid claim to two NCAA titles (1996-97 and 1999-2000), three WCHA regular season championships (1996-99), two WCHA playoff crowns (1996-97 and 1999-2000) and earned four straight berths in the NCAA tournament (1996-2000). His primary responsibilities with the Fighting Sioux included handling the team’s recruiting

(1991-92). The second round pick of the Montreal Canadiens in the 1982 NHL draft (40th selection overall), he was credited with four assists in 25 lifetime NHL outings as a nagging back injury forced him to retire prematurely from the professional ranks following the 1991-92 season. Sandelin, one of just three current NCHC coaches with NHL playing experience, also skated for Team U.S.A. at the 1989 Goodwill Games, the 1986 International Ice Hockey Federation Championships, and the 1984 IIHF Junior Championships. Sandelin, who graduated from North Dakota in 1986 with a bachelor’s degree in marketing, was the 2013 recipient of North Dakota’s Tom Clifford Award (recognizing North Dakota alumni who serve with distinction as athletic coaches at the high school or college levels). He resides in Hermantown with his wife, Wendy, and their son, Ryan, and daughter, Katie.

coordinator and academic advisor duties, and assisting with all aspects of practice and game preparation. Sandelin spent the 1993-94 season as the head coach of the Fargo-Moorhead Junior Kings of the Junior Elite Hockey League after working in that same capacity (and doubling as general manager) the previous winter with the American Hockey Association’s Fargo-Moorhead Express. Born and raised in Hibbing, Minn., Sandelin capped off his four-year playing career at North Dakota in 1985-86 by being named one of 10 finalists for the Hobey Baker Memorial Award. He captained the club that season and also was an All-WCHA first team pick and an NCAA I All-American second team selection. Named North Dakota’s Most Valuable Player as a senior after amassing a career-high 38 points in 40 games, Sandelin went on to play seven years of professional hockey, including NHL stints with the Montreal Canadiens (1986-88), Philadelphia Flyers (1990-91) and Minnesota North Stars

BULLDOG ASSISTANT COACHES 12

Brett Larson

In his four years and two tours of duty with the UMD coaching staff, Brett Larson has been part of one of the most successful runs in Bulldog history. Larson, who spent three seasons as a UMD assistant before departing for the United States Hockey League in 2011 -- and eventually an associate head coaching job at Ohio State University, returned to the Bulldog staff in August 2015 to assume his old position. During his somewhat short time at his alma mater, (2008-11 and 2015-16), UMD has rolled up a 89-56-20 overall record, captured the school’s first-ever NCAA championship (at St. Paul’s Xcel Energy Center in 2011), made three NCAA playoff appearances (2009, 2011 and 2015) and skated off with one WCHA playoff title (2009) while qualifying for the WCHA Final Five/NCHC Frozen Four tournament four times (2009-11 and 2016). He also coached and/or recruited one Hobey Baker Award Memorial Award winner, four All-Americans, eight future NHLers and one 2014 U.S. Olympian. In late May 2011, Larson left UMD to take over the head coaching and general manager duties with the USHL’s Sioux City Musketeers. He spent two seasons in Sioux City and directed that club to the USHL playoffs as a rookie bench boss in 2011-12. He also tutored a pair of current Bulldogs in junior center Jared Thomas and senior defenseman Dan Molenaar. Larson, who served as the head coach for gold medal-winning Team USA at the 2012 World Junior A Challenge, returned to the collegiate ranks in 2013 when he signed on as Ohio State’s associate head coach. He worked for two winters under Steve Rohlik, his former Bulldog assistant coaching colleague. A Duluth native and 1991 Denfeld High School graduate, Larson patrolled the Bulldog blue line for four seasons, racking up 24 goals and 43 assists for 67 points in 133 games. He captained the Bulldogs during his senior year in 1994-95 when he attained WCHA All-Academic Team recognition for a third straight time and also landed the team’s Community Service Award. Larson enjoyed a breakout season the previous winter when he finished with 28 points and nine power play goals en route to being named UMD’s Most Improved Player. That same year he set a program record for fastest two power play goals (12 seconds vs. Northern Michigan University) which still stands. As a sophomore, Larson and the Bulldogs captured the WCHA regular season title and advanced to the NCAA playoffs quarterfinals. Selected in the 11th round by the Detroit Red Wings in the 1990 National Hockey League draft, Larson went on to skate 12 years in the professional ranks, including two (1990-2001) as a player-coach with the San Diego Gulls of the now-defunct West Coast Hockey League. He also did time with the Colonial Hockey League’s Madison Monsters, the East Coast Hockey League’s Louisville Riverfrogs, the International Hockey League’s Utah Grizzlies, Las Vegas Thunder and Long Beach Ice Dogs in addition to spending another five years in Denmark, Germany and England. He wrapped up his playing days in 2006-07 as a player/assistant coach for the Florida Seals of the Southern Professional Hockey League before that Orlando-based franchise folded at midseason. During the spring of 2008, Larson coached Team RBK (AAA selects) in the Twin Cities metro area. The 44-year old Larson (8/20/72), who received a Bachelor’s degree in criminology from UMD in 2004, is a board member for Northern Lights Foundation He and his wife, Kelly, have one son (Lane) and one daughter (Calla).

Jason Herter

Jason Herter, a former Western Collegiate Hockey Association standout and first round National Hockey League draft pick, is in his sixth year with the Bulldogs staff, having officially began his assistant coaching duties at UMD in the summer of 2011. Since enlisting his services with the Bulldogs, Herter has been part of three NCAA Tournament participants (2012, 2015 and 2016) and, in his debut season, saw center Jack Connolly win the school’s fifth Hobey Baker Memorial Award. In 2015-16, Herter began a term on College Hockey, Inc.’s Board of Directors. A native of Hafford, Saskatchewan, Herter doubled as the head coach and general manager for the United States Hockey League’s Fargo (N.D.) Force six years ago and guided that franchise to a regular season record of 33-22-5. He joined the Force in 2008-09 for their inaugural season as an assistant coach (under current University of Nebraska Omaha bench boss Dean Blais) before spending the following year scouting for the Des Moines Buccaneers of the USHL. Along with Pat Ferschweiler (now an assistant coach with the National Hockey League’s Detroit Red Wings), Herter started the Russell Stover AAA midget U16 and U18 teams out of Overland Park, Kan., and spent five years with that program and coaching the U16 club before moving on to Fargo. Selected in the first round (8th pick overall) by the Vancouver Canucks in the 1989 NHL entry draft, Herter skillfully manned the University of North Dakota blueline for three seasons (198891), racking up 119 points on 30 goals and 89 assists in 118 games. In his farewell year in Grand Forks, N.D., he secured a spot on both the All-WCHA second team and the WCHA AllAcademic Team. A member of the Canadian National Junior Team in 1990, Herter went on to make one appearance in the NHL -- with the New York Islanders in 1995-96 -- as part of an 11-year professional playing career, which included stops in the American Hockey League (Hamilton) and the International Hockey League (Milwaukee, Kalamazoo, Utah, Kansas City and Orlando). His final four seasons of competition were spent in Europe where, in 2001-02, he and former Bulldog assistant coaching colleague Derek Plante were teammates with the Munich Barons. Herter, 46 (10/2/70), earned his Bachelor’s degree in business management from North Dakota in 2005 and two years later received a Master’s degree in entrepreneurship from the University of Missouri-Kansas City. He and his wife, Laura, have two children (Jordyn and Jacob) -- and live in Hermantown, Minn.

Brant Nicklin

Brant Nicklin, who made a name for himself for his puckstopping prowess at University of Minnesota Duluth during the late 1990s, returned to the Bulldog men’s hockey program in 2014-15 as a volunteer assistant coach. Nicklin had served as the UMD women’s goaltending coach the past five seasons and has been an assistant coach at the College of St. Scholastica in Duluth since 1995-96. He’s also run a number of local goaltending schools and clinics over the past decade. A native of Comox, British Columbia, Nicklin was the Bulldogs’ ace in the goal for four seasons and exited UMD in 2000 ranking first all-time in saves percentage (.895), shut outs (8) and appearances (137), second in saves (3,880) and goals against average (3.40) and third in wins (55). He still owns team records for games played (137), consecutive appearances (76) and consecutive starts (76, which at the time was a NCAA Division I mark). In 1996-97, Nicklin became just the second UMD freshman to play in every minute of his club’s Western Collegiate Hockey Association games and wound up landing a spot on that circuit’s All-Rookie Team. The following year, he posted a program-record five shutouts and a 21-16-2 overall mark while pacing the WCHA in saves for a second straight winter. Nicklin, the current WCHA record holder for consecutive league starts (80), was the recipient of the Bulldog Community Service Award as junior and the Goldie Wolfe Award (UMD’s Most Inspirational Player) in 1999-2000. Nicklin went on to sign a free agent contract with the National Hockey League’s Pittsburgh Penguins and participated in two of their training camps.

MEMORABLE UMD HOCKEY MOMENTS

December 10, 1930. Duluth State Teacher’s College announces that intercollegiate ice hockey will be added to the institution’s varsity sports program. January 13, 1931. DSTC bows to Duluth Central High School 3-0 at the Duluth Amphitheater in the club’s first varsity hockey game. Subsequently, the fledgling team drops all three of its contests in its inaugural campaign. Head Coach Frank Kovach, who also helped start both the Bulldog intercollegiate football and men’s basketball programs that same year, awards 15 varsity letters. February 27, 1932. DSTC wins its first intercollegiate hockey game with a 3-2 decision over Two Harbors High School at the Duluth Amphitheater. June 10, 1946. Following a 14-year absence, ice hockey is reinstated as a varsity sport by adminstrative officials at Duluth State Teacher’s College. February 24, 1949. Goaltender Norm Thompson and the Bulldogs shut out Carleton College 3-0 in Duluth to close out the year with a 7-0-0 overall record for their only unbeaten, untied season in history. June 27, 1949. After two seasons playing as an independent, UMD is accepted into the Minnesota Intercollegiate Athletic Conference. December 13, 1957. UMD dumps visiting Michigan Tech University 5-3 for its first triumph over an NCAA Division I institution. February 18, 1959. Junior center Orest Wojcichowsky nets 10 points (four goals and six assists) against Concordia College in what would stand as a UMD (pre-NCAA Division I) single-game record. The Bulldogs win the MIAC confrontation 16-0 at the Duluth Curling Club. February 15, 1961. In its final game as members of the MIAC, UMD blanks Augsburg College 19-0 at the Duluth Curling Club. The victory was the Bulldogs’ 56th straight in league play and assured UMD of its sixth consecutive MIAC title.

The Bulldogs played in the cozy confines of the Duluth Curling Club from the early 1950s through the 1965-66 season ... to construction delays with the facility (it wouldn’t officially open until July 1966), the national event is later switched to Williams Arena in Minneapolis. The Duluth Arena, however, would eventually host the NCAA Championships in both 1968 and 1981. April 3, 1965. UMD Provost Raymond Darland announces that the Bulldogs will officially become the eighth team in the prestigious WCHA beginning with the 196566 season. The Bulldogs join Minnesota, North Dakota, Colorado College, Denver, Michigan Tech, Michigan State and Michigan in the newly-expanded circuit. February 11, 1966. The Bulldogs end their 14-game winless WCHA streak by clipping North Dakota 3-2 in overtime in Grand Forks, ND, for the school’s first league victory.

February 18, 1966. The Bulldogs take to the Duluth Curling Club ice sheet for a final time, falling 8-3 to the University of Michigan. A gathering of just over 2,000 spectators witness the finale. March 13, 1966. Senior defenseman Bob Hill is among six players selected to 196566 AHCA All-American first team -- the first Bulldog to ever earn such a distinction. November 19, 1966. In the inaugural game at the newly-constructed Duluth Arena, All-American senior center Keith “Huffer” Christiansen, who later that year would be named the WCHA’s Most Valuable Player, collects a school-record six assists to help propel the Bulldogs past Minnesota 8-1 before a sellout crowd of 5,700.

August 10, 1961. UMD abandons the MIAC in hopes of establishing itself as a legitimate big-time college hockey school. The University officially elects to compete as a Division I independent and releases a 1961-62 schedule which features engagements against Western Collegiate Hockey Association powers such as the University of Minnesota, Michigan Tech, Michigan State University, and the University of Denver. December 19, 1964. In what was then an NCAA Division I single-game record, senior goaltender Bill Halbrehder makes 77 saves in the Bulldogs’ 6-5 overtime loss to the University of Michigan in Ann Arbor.

January 29, 1979. Two days following a 10-6 thumping of Wisconsin at the DECC and extending its unbeaten streak to 13 games (11-0-2), UMD emerges as the No. 1 team in the WMPL-Radio Coaches Poll. It marks the first time in team history that UMD is tabbed as nation’s top dog in any poll.

April 4, 1970. Following his debut collegiate season, center Murray Keogan is named an NCAA I All-American (the only UMD newcomer to ever be so honored) and also lands All-WCHA first team and WCHA Rookie of the Year recognition.

November 17, 1972. Buoyed by the five-goal performance of senior Steve “Pokey” Trachsel, UMD opens play at the Christmas City of the North Tournament in Duluth with an 11-4 rout of Lake Superior State University. Trachsel, who had been deployed at defense during his first three collegiate seasons before moving up to wing in 1972-73, sets a club mark (one that still stands) with the five scores and equals another team record by adding one assist for a six-point evening. Despite the recordbreaking outing, Trachsel was overlooked by the selection committee for a spot on the All-Tournament first team. January 13, 1973. In what arguably ranks as the greatest UMD comeback of all time, the Bulldogs rally from a 6-2 deficit with just 5:21 remaining in regulation to edge Michigan Tech 7-6 in overtime at the Duluth Arena. Bulldog junior center Pat Boutette scores three straight goals (a natural hat trick) in a span of 2:37 during the comeback effort before rookie right winger Tom Milani notches the game-winner 3:02 (on an assist from Boutette) into the extra session.

March 7, 1979. Despite losing 4-2 (in overtime) to Denver, the Bulldogs still managed to win their two-game, total-goal WCHA quarterfinal playoff series with the Pioneers 7-6 at the Duluth Arena to advance to the second round of the league’s post-season tournament for the first time.

In his first collegiate game with the Bulldogs, freshman right winger John “Bah” Harrington raps in a centering pass from Ernie Powell past goaltender Blane Comstock 4:04 into overtime to give host UMD a 4-3 win over the United States Olympic Team. December 16, 1977. Just 13 days after equalling a UMD record for points in one game (six), junior All-American defenseman Curt Giles ties a club single-game mark for assists when he sets up six goals to spark the Bulldogs to a 7-6 victory at Colorado College. December 29, 1977. Wearing Eveleth High School Golden Bear uniforms because their new home jerseys had yet to arrive, the Bulldogs upend Brown University 4-1. Four different UMD skaters score in the victory, including junior center and Eveleth native Mark Pavelich.

March 8, 1980. In his 146th, and final, outing in a Bulldog sweater - a 7-6 WCHA playoff setback at Colorado College -- senior center Dan Lempe tallies once to finish as UMD’s all-time scoring leader with 222 points on 79 goals and 143 assists. March 19, 1983. After bowing to Providence College 7-3 the previous night, UMD succumbs 3-2 to the host Friars in its first showing in an NCAA playoff series. It turns out to be the final collegiate outing for sophomore puckstopping sensation Bob Mason,the WCHA Most Valuable Player Award recipient who would go on to tend goal for the U.S. at the 1984 Winter Olympics. February 17, 1984. Sparked by senior left winger Bob Lakso’s hat trick, UMD upends Wisconsin 4-2 at the Duluth Arena to secure its first WCHA title.The Bulldogs had dedicated the season to athletic director Ralph Romano, who died of a heart attack while watching a UMD-Denver game at the Duluth Arena three months earlier.

March 10, 1984. Forced to host a “home” series at Williams (Mariucci) Arena in Minneapolis due to a scheduling conflict with the Duluth Arena, the Bulldogs blitz North Dakota 8-1 before a near-capacity crowd of 7,297 in the first of a two-game WCHA playoff championship series. UMD goes on to defeat the Fighting Sioux, 12-6, in the total-goal set, becoming just the second team ever to claim league regular season and playoff titles in the same season.

November 3, 1978. Down 4-0 with just over 7:30 to play in regualtion, the Bulldogs stage, what the Duluth News-Tribune describes as a “Miracle Rally” by defeating visiting North Dakota 5-4 in overtime. Junior center and future All-American Mark Pavelich scores two of the Bulldogs’ four third period goals, including the equalizer with 0:02 on the clock and Dan Lempe’s goal at the 5:43 mark of overtime caps the comeback win.

April 18, 2000. One month after receiving the WCHA’s Student-Athlete of the Year Award, senior center Jeff Scissons is named a GTE Academic All-American (first team) -- the first UMD athlete to ever be so honored.

UMD came into the tourney boasting a 25-0-1 record in games in which it led after two periods that winter. April 9, 2004. Junior Lessard puts the exclamation point on a marvelous senior season by being presented with the Hobey Baker Memorial Award -- the fourth Bulldog to win college hockey’s most coveted individual prize.

He joins fellow puckster Keith “Huffer” Christiansen as the only two UMD male athletes to ever be so honored. March 21, 2009. UMD becomes the first play-in game participant to capture the WCHA Final Five title in the 17-year history of that event by blanking the University of Denver 4-0.

A partisan UMD crowd of 7,187 at Minnesota’s Mariucci Arena are on hand to witness perhaps the most astonishing comeback in Bulldog history.

MEMORABLE UMD HOCKEY MOMENTS

March 15, 1998. Basically left for dead and down 4-0 with less than 14 minutes remaining in regulation, the Bulldogs rally to defeat the University of Minnesota 5-4 in the third and deciding game of their best-of-three WCHA playoff series at the DECC.

March 18, 2004. UMD’s prodigious regular season does not go unnoticed as two of the WCHA’s major honors are bestowed on Bulldogs at the league’s Awards Banquet. Senior wing Junior Lessard is chosen the WCHA’s Player of the Year -- the seventh Bulldog to be so recognized -- after topping that circuit in both scoring and goals while Scott Sandelin lands the WCHA Coach of the Year Award after he directed UMD to its highest league finish (second place) in 11 years. Sandelin would go on to also lay claim to the Spencer Penrose Award as the NCAA I Coach of the Year, joining Mike Sertich (1983-84) as the only two Bulldog bosses to win that particular piece of hardware. March 28, 2004. In the first NCAA playoff meeting ever between the two archrivals, the Bulldogs ambush two-time defending national champion Minnesota 3-1 to seize the NCAA Midwest Regional title in Grand

year ranked eighth in both major national polls. The loss is the collegiate finale for All-American junior goaltender Alex Stalock, who set UMD single-season marks for both goals against average (2.13) and saves percentage (.924) and became just the second Bulldog ever -- and first since Rick Kosti in 1984-85 -- to hold the title as the WCHA’s goals against average leader.

After 44 years and nearly 900 games, UMD (adorned in its classic 1966-era throwback jerseys) farewell to the DECC -- and do so in style -- by turning back the University of Denver 2-1. The introduction of the 20-member All-DECC Team is among the highlights of the historic night, which is capped off with an emotional post-game ceremony featuring some 100-plus past and present Bulldogs. December 30, 2010. A capacity crowd of 6,764 -- the largest gathering to ever to take in a UMD home game -- watches North Dakota blank the Bulldogs 5-0 and spoil AMSOIL Arena’s long-anticipated grand opening party. The Sioux, who blew the game open by scoring three times in a span of 74 seconds late in the second period, become the first team to hold UMD scoreless in Duluth since March 21, 2008. March 26, 2011.

April 7, 2011. Four different Bulldogs score goals and rookie defenseman Justin Faulk and senior right winger Justin Fontaine each add three assists to propel UMD past the

University of Notre Dame 4-3 in the NCAA Frozen Four semifinals. The Bulldogs, playing before a somewhat hometown crowd of 19,139 at Xcel Energy Center in St. Paul, go 3-for-6 on the power play and stymie the Fighting Irish on all five of their man advantage opportunities. April 8, 2011. Junior center Jack Connolly, who earlier in the spring was chosen a Top 10 Finalist for the Hobey Baker Memorial Award, is named to the All-American first team while his linemate, junior right winger Mike Connolly, attains second team aclaim. Jack Connolly becomes just the sixth Bulldog ever -- and first in 25 years -- to receive All-American honors on more than one occasion. April 9, 2011.

UMD AND THE HOBEY BAKER MEMORIAL AWARD 49

2011-12 Center Duluth, Minn.

Junior Lessard

2003-04 Right Wing St. Joseph deBeauce, Quebec

Chris Marinucci

On April 6, 2012, Jack Connolly put an exclamation point -- a huge exclamation point -- on the most decorated playing career in UMD hockey history when he was bestowed with the 2011-12 Hobey Baker Memorial Award.

Twenty years after Tom Kurvers walked off with the University of Minnesota Duluth’s initial Hobey Baker Memorial Award, another remarkably gifted athlete who also sported the familiar No. 22 Bulldog sweater followed suit.

He was certainly no flash in the pan, but then again, he’ll be the first to admit that he was no flash, either.

All-American. NCAA champion. Hometown hero. And now this.

Indeed, on April 9, 2004, Junior Lessard, who was born and raised in the Frenchspeaking quarters of Quebec, capped off a memorable senior season by being bestowed with college hockey’s highest honor. Lessard’s list of accomplishments during his final collegiate go-around would certainly do any of the previous 23 Hobey Baker Memorial winners proud. The fiery redhead topped the NCAA in scoring (63), goals (32), and power play tallies while helping lead the Bulldogs to their first NCAA Frozen Four appearance in nearly a generation and a 28-13-4 overall record. Besides being selected as both the uscho.com and insidecollegehockey. com national Player of the Year, Lessard also was an American Hockey Coaches Association All-American first team honoree and a member of the all-tournament team at the NCAA Frozen Four as well as at the NCAA Midwest Regional. A little less than two weeks after his college play days were over, Lessard signed a free agent contract with the National Hockey League’s Dallas Stars.

Jack Connolly

“I think Jack epitomizes what the award is about,” said UMD head coach Scott Sandelin after his prized pupil became the program’s fifth hobey baker winner. “Obviously, he was tremendous leader and an offensive catalyst for our team since his arrival here. He had a remarkable career and an even more remarkable seniors season. But most of all, Jack has always represented our program in a first-class way -- on the rink, in the classroom and in the community.” The first Bulldog to ever be named a Hobey Baker Memorial Award Top 10 Finalist twice and the first to earn All-WCHA first team status on three occasions, Connolly ranked second in the nation in both scoring (a career-high 60 points -- the most by any Bulldog in eight years) and assists (40) during his farewell collegiate go-around. For his efforts, he attained All-American recognition for a third time, something only one other Bulldog -- defenseman Norm Maciver (1983-86) had ever done before. The 2011-12 WCHA Player of the Year and this year’s recipient of the Lowe’s Senior CLASS Award that same season, Connolly missed nary a shift during his four years with the Bulldogs, skating in a school-record 166 consecutive games. In 2011-12, he captained UMD to a 25-10-6 overall record, a second-place WCHA finish and its third NCAA tournament berth in the past four years. He served as an assistant team captain with the Bulldogs in 2010-11 when they skated away with the program’s first national championship.

But despite all of his on-ice successes, the one achievement that Lessard, UMD’s Outstanding Male Senior Athlete for 200304, takes perhaps the most pride in was realized on May 15, 2004 when he officially received his Bachelor of Arts degree from UMD in, of all areas of study, English.

“I’ve never considered myself to be a particularly electrifying type of player,” said Chris Marinucci upon receiving the 1994 Hobey Baker Memorial Award. “When people look back at my career at UMD, I guess I would just like to be remembered as a guy who went out everyday and just worked hard. That’s the kind of hockey player I always strived to be.” Marinucci, the first -- and only -- Hobey Baker Memorial Award recipient to skate on a sub-.500 team (the Bulldogs were 14-21-3 overall that winter and placed seventh in the 10-team WCHA), was showered with a host of other prominent honors as a senior in 1993-94. He was named the College Player of the Year by USA Hockey and the WCHA Player of the Year in addition to earning NCAA I All-American first team acclaim. Over his final two years of competition, Marinucci scored more points (138) than any other skater in the country while becoming just the fourth Bulldog to post backto-back 30-goal seasons. In 1993-94 as a UMD team captain, he finished first in the WCHA scoring race and racked up a team-leading 61 points overall. That spring, Marinucci earned UMD’s Outstanding Male Senior Athlete award and soon after began a lengthy professional playing career which included National Hockey League stints with the New York Islanders and Los Angeles Kings.

Bill Watson

Tom Kurvers

1984-85 Right Wing Powerview, Manitoba

1983-84 Defenseman Bloomington, Minn.

It’s anybody’s guess what kind of further damage Bill Watson would have done to the Bulldog record books, not to mention the collective psyche of opposing goaltenders had he stayed for his fourth, and final, year of eligibility at the University of Minnesota Duluth.

No matter how many Hobey Baker Memorial Award winners the University of Minnesota Duluth goes on to produce, Bulldog fans will always hold a special place in their heart for Tom Kurvers for one distinct reason: He was the first.

Watson bid a premature farewell to the collegiate ranks at the conclusion of 198485 season after he had become the first — and only to date — Bulldog to crack the 100-point plateau. Watson, who racked up a then-NCAA record 109 points, was selected the WCHA’s Most Valuable Player as a junior after pacing that circuit in scoring for a second straight season. Watson also established club single-season marks for assists (60), multiple-point games (36) while also piecing together an unprecedented 33-game scoring streak (after he was held scoreless by Northeastern University on Dec. 15 of that year he proceeded to pick up at least one point in each of the next 19 contests). For his career, he finished with 210 points in just 108 outings for a schoolrecord 1.94 points per game average. Watson, a two-time All-American, skated four seasons with the National Hockey League’s Chicago Blackhawks and, in 1986-87, received the Emery Edge Award for having the best plus-minus rating of any Chicago skater. After putting the wraps on his playing days the late 1980s, Watson served as the head hockey coach at the College of St. Scholastica and as an assistant with the Western Michigan University program. He is currently is a volunteer on the Bulldog hockey staff.

As a senior in 1983-84, Kurvers captained the Bulldogs to their first-ever Western Collegiate Hockey Association regular season and playoff titles. That magical season came to end in March, just one day after Kurvers was officially named the fourth Hobey Baker Award recipient, when the Bulldogs fell 5-4 in four overtimes to Bowling Green State University in the NCAA championship game. Kurvers, who attained All-American first team status that winter, paced all WCHA defensemen in scoring en route to being chosen the WCHA’s Player of the Year. He scored more goals (43) and more points (192) than any other blueliner in team history and closed out his playing days ranking six on UMD’s career scoring charts. Selected UMD’s Outstanding Male Senior Athlete in 1983-84, Kurvers went on to enjoy an 11-year National Hockey League career while skating with seven different clubs — Montreal, Buffalo, New Jersey, Toronto, the New York Islanders, Vancouver, and Anaheim. He later spent 10 years in the Phoenix Coyotes front office (and served as an assistant coach with that NHL club during the 2003-04 sseason) and is now the assistant general manager for the Tampa Bay Lightning.

Bulldog Bit • • • The 1985-86 Bulldogs are the last NCAA team to eclipse the 36.0 percent power play efficiency plateau for a season. That unit, which was anchored by the likes of Matt Christensen (right), produced the sixth best single-season mark (they connected at a staggering 36.5 percent clip) in NCAA history.
