Thanks.

Is there an active D1 commit playing in NDHSH now?

By far, our best half of the year: turnover-wise (only 7), shooting wise (over 50%, plus 7-17 on 3's), and rebounding-wise (23-12 edge). Hope we can keep it up.

The Bunnies lose 21 to FBS, including 9 seniors and 16 that followed their former head coach to WSU. Ouch. Big recruiting job ahead for their next guy.

He gave them a chance in almost every game, hence their wins over Red River, Minot and others. For some reason, Devils Lake seems to produce good goaltenders fairly consistently.

Surprisingly, Devils Lake beat Minot twice during the regular season that year, but lost to them 2-1 in OT in the first round of the state tourney.

Since Rogers has left SDSU, maybe it's time for Coach Schmidt to pull a Rabbit out of the hat, so to speak.

Wishing everyone a blessed Christmas and a Happy New Year!

I'd be thrilled to get another Quincy Vaughn. Student athlete that was a credit to his team and community. Team player all the way; did whatever he could to help the team when he didn't win the starting QB position. Wish he had another year of eligibility.

Definitely good enough to be a 1 or 2 guy at many schools. Wish he would have stayed, but can't blame him for hitting the portal. Great kick returner.

I wouldn't tell my players to let up, either. But there are other things that a coach can do, such as giving most of the ice time to his second, third, and fourth (if he has one) lines after the game has, for all intents and purposes, been decided. That gives his third and fourth (if he has one) lines some extra PT, perhaps saves the opponent from feeling that they were mercilessly (and needlessly) pounded into the ground, and preserves the coach's reputation. Devils Lake was only beaten 5-0 by both West Fargo and Grand Forks, so, on the surface at least, 18-0 looks like a needless beatdown.

Just hope that that coach wasn't running it up against a team of mostly 7th, 8th, and 9th graders. Could be pretty discouraging for kids that young.

FYP.

No one has mentioned dog sled yet, but that would be a little too obvious. But, wait.........

No doubt!!! I was on a few of those bus trips that were lengthened by the wrong outcome.
