An emotional scene pregame as the Bison bring out Officers Dotas, Hawes, and Robinson out for the coin toss, along with the parents of fallen officer Jake Wallin. Long standing ovation from Bison Nation. # FargoStrong
The National Anthem wouldn’t play ahead of the playoff game between the South/Shanley and Mandan boys hockey teams, so the crowd performed their own rendition.

Since the start of their FCS Dynasty in 2011, we haven't seen a playoff run quite like this year for the Bison.
With two road playoff wins down and the semifinals coming up in Montana, this group has embraced the Road Warrior Role.
Perfectly summed up here by Jake Kubas:
It's time for me to make an incredibly tough announcement. At the end of the month I'll be taking the next big step in my broadcasting career, which will be bringing me down to Fargo, North Dakota. I'm so incredibly thankful for the time I've spent here in my hometown. (Cont)
This goal by Ice Dogs Forward Tyler Deweese is awesome for a couple reasons.
1: It's his first goal in front of his hometown crowd at the big dipper.
2: He celebrates right towards the camera which is a real pro move.

Noah Gindorff was originally set to begin the pre-draft process last year until his ankle injury put that plan on hold, the same injury that cut his final season with

short. We talked to
@NGindorff16
about battling back and his long road to the Combine.
Small Fry coming this spring! Can’t even begin to say how excited I am for this next chapter in our lives as we grow as a family. Can’t wait to meet you Small Fry!

WHAT. A. FINISH.

I apparently had some sort of mental breakdown when putting in my Lower-third. I don't know if I was trying to put "Hutchison Hawks" or "Hutchison Hockey", but I feel like this is a fair compromise
The first ever Easton Stick Quarterback Clinic is in the books! Got to talk to the former
@NDSUfootball
and current
@chargers
QB about what he saw from the young throwers this morning.
High praise for these kids from the winningest FCS quarterback ever:
Eielson's playoff game will be the last home game in the coaching career of my Father, Don Fry. He's been coaching for over 30 years, assisting Buck Nystrom in Eielsons first state title in 1992. He currently has 5 rings and will have a chance to add a sixth in his final season.
Current Bison Lineman Mason Miller talks about getting some extra lessons from Cordell Volson and perfectly sums up
@Volson23
's dedication to the program.
Got to talk to
@UNDfootball
head coach Bubba Schweigert in a press conference this afternoon about his favorite part of seeing his team get ready for the 2021 Spring FCS season.
The Fighting Hawks can begin practice on Friday as they prepare for their February 20th Kickoff.

Here I asked Luke about what went into his decision to join the Bison.
Hunter Luepke, who was a frontrunner for the Walter Payton award before he got injured, is another versatile NFL prospect from North Dakota State. The Fullback told me what he thinks he could bring to the Next Level.

Check this out: The

kill off the powerplay and immediately dump it down the ice to Ray Walen, scoring right out of the box. This was the only goal the Spartans would need, advancing in the region tournament with a 1-0 win on their home ice.
The

Bison are known for their hard-nosed, run-heavy offense, something that was on full display when Kobe Johnson and Tamerik Williams combined for 312 yards against Montana.

Got a chance to talk to Bison Linebacker Logan Kopp about his interception against Maine on Saturday. The Sophomore from St. Louis was stopped short on his quest to the endzone, but brought some Maine players down with him.
An absolutely ridiculous catch by

Outfielder Jordan Leininger. The more I watch this one the more impressive it is. Post 2 and Jamestown are still competing in their State Championship contest. We'll have full highlights tonight.
There were some DIRTY Dangles last night in Hockey Town USA. Tonight I dig a bit more into the rivalry between

The Dog Bowl is tomorrow night and there is a lot on the line. If Lathrop wins, they are Conference Champions. Now, if West Valley wins by 5 or more points, then both teams will make the playoffs, if WV wins by 4 or less then it's Lathrop and Palmer in the playoffs.
