COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. (UND Athletics) The University of North Dakota hockey team swept Omaha last week, clinching back-to-back National Collegiate Hockey Conference regular season championships. With that, UND had a pair of individual accolades in the convincing 4-1 and 7-1 wins as senior Collin Adams was named the Bauer NCHC Forward of the Week and junior Jacob Bernard-Docker picked up defenseman of the week accolades.

We often find oursleves pondering the what ifs of the world but we can’t see far enough into that crystal ball to make sense of it.
When we look at the state of North Dakota, there’s a lot of things we wish we could change, but cannot.
Imagine if we could, or what if something was completely different than it is in reality.
As an example, can you imagine if the community of Devils Lake was built farther away from the lake and at a higher elevation.
There would never have been any flooding, dikes wouldn’t have had to be built to protect the city and roads to south of town may not have had to be built up and up and up to stay ahead of the rising water.
