  1. Every year North Dakota will have a great hockey team. That has always been true and will not change. This year was the first time in several years (probably since '05 at the Frozen Four in my hometown of Columbus) that I felt the team had a chance to do something truly special, to raise that Championship trophy for the first time since '00. Every year they have had a great chance, but this year seemed different to me, the boys deserved better tonight, but the first period did them in. Hope springs eternal, however, and I'm sure that next year will bring about another great run for the Fighting Sioux!

  2. I was at a Kroger store in the CIncinatti area and saw a middle aged man wearing a Sioux sweatshirt and cap. I walked up to him to ask him if he was from ND. He said he had a contracted job in GF a while ago and became a Sioux fan while there. Would that be your dad? I saw him one more time a couple of weeks later and he made a point of saying hello to me, he was still wearing his Sioux gear!

    I went out to my car after work last Saturday and found a note under my wind shield wiper. It said 'Hi North Dakota, I'm from Dickinson, ND. Moved to Ohio in 1972. Welcome to Ohio.' She signed her name. Not a Sioux story but I think it reflects the type of people that are North Dakotans.

    Afraid it's none of our family, we're from Columbus. But you speak the truth when you talk about the type of people North Dakotans are. Our family is from the Carrington area of the state originally. Now we have relatives from as far west as Beulah to Grafton and Grand Forks

  3. It truly is amazing the respect we get when we're out at a hockey game sporting our Sioux jerseys here in columbus. There is seldom a game that goes by without someone saying something or another Sioux fan engaging us. It brings a great sense of pride to my dad and I to know that even in Ohio the presence of North Dakota Fighting Sioux is known. The logo and nickname of the Fighting Sioux is truly an amazing thing. It means so much to so many people and is respected and represented in all corners of the world.That is why we need to help it survive,it really is so much more than what it appears to be.

  4. what a sad, sad day for the university. Not only that, but for the entire state of north dakota and anyone who has supported the SIOUX in their lifetime. Truly devastating and disapointing. Can't believe what has happened, really cannot.
