dagies Posted December 18, 2013 Share Posted December 18, 2013 I listened to the comeback against UMD on the radio; the game was in Duluth. Hennessy was beside himself, as you can imagine. The 75 Years of Sioux Hockey book has a few tidbits. Behind a Brett Hull hat trick, UMD had a 6-1 lead after one period. The Sioux outshot UMD 34-7 in the third. That fits my recollection, that the Sioux dominated but couldn't get the puck across the line. They eventually did. That was my memory as well, that this game was a road game. I listened to it on the radio as well. At least that's my memory. I remember so little of those times that I hesitate to say anything unless someone says something first that matches with my memory Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blackheart Posted December 19, 2013 Share Posted December 19, 2013 From our media guides, files and archives here in the UND Athletics Media Relations office. Most don't know this, but before folks like myself were called 'media relations directors,' we were known as 'sports information directors.' Preserving historical archives with information like this is actually one of my primary functions. We have a box score for every game going back to at least the mid-60s. Before that, the information becomes much more scarce. Ok...thanks for your response... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They seem to have a lot of them at least back to 1970. Search by league, team, then year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wisconsin Sioux Posted December 20, 2013 Share Posted December 20, 2013 Were you a student in those days, W Sioux? Yes and was at the first game in the old Ralph. Also returned to campus for other degrees over the years. I remember some of the players did not even wear helmets. Goalie had the old "Jason" mask. My favorite player was nicknamed Spook Calhoun (not sure of spelling of last name). They also had a junior varsity in those days. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did not remember Gino being an assistant to Bjorkman. Guess it's not always a bad idea to replace a coach with an assistant. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Man....what an uproar when Gino was named head coach. One of the guys in the running was Ned Harkness from RPI who had a couple of national championships under his belt. Rob Leer, the sportscaster at WDAZ was so upset that he tore up his UND press pass on the air. It cost him his job. He wound up at KSTP in the Twin Cities and now owns his own broadcasting consulting firm. It took Gino just about one year to make everyone forget about Ned Harkness. The rest is history. Unfortunately, the nightmares of Rube have never faded. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think Rube was pretty mellow at that point, and Gino had some edge, and I suspect he was in charge of the JV squad. Sounds like a lot of you guys remember the old barn. No heat so sneaking in booze and win in those big air force parkas was so easy it was hardly hidden. Wire mesh in the end zone, where the cymbals guy would crash opposing players when they got their head up against the wire. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sprig Posted December 21, 2013 Share Posted December 21, 2013 Did you get to know Greg Cameron? I did not, knew Jim Cruise, Steve Gasparini, Al Hangsleben, Rick Clubbe, Earl Anderson, Dennis Johnson and Roger Lameroux from the dorm (Walsh). Not many others. AF parkas hiding the booze in the old barn, brutally cold in there, I guess, but we weren't feeling much pain, Got drenched with beer some girls in front of us through up into the air when the Sioux won. It was a cold walk back to Walsh. Was gone from UND when Gino was hired as head coach (living in south Texas, had no idea what was going on with Sioux hockey). Didn't know the locals wanted someone else hired as HC. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Years later I found out a friend of mine here in Wisconsin worked with him at KTSP. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
