For anyone who'll be in Grand Forks this weekend, and wants to see the Fighting Sioux Hockey team in action early...

2nd Annual

UND Men's Hockey -

'They Can Skate' Race!

Think you know the UND MEN'S HOCKEY TEAM?

The UND Student-Athlete Advisory Council (SAAC) has organized a fundraiser to benefit the

MAKE-A-WISH FOUNDATION to test you.

On Saturday September 17th the Fighting Sioux Men's Hockey Team is running a 10K race against each other at University Park.

We're opening it up to the public to guess which player will finish in what time. It is $5 minimum per bet/donation, with all proceeds going to the Make-A-Wish Foundation. Anyone who makes a bet will receive a free donut and coffee or hot chocolate.

NOTE: You must be present at the race to be eligible to win!

The betting opens at 8:30am at the starting line and closes at 9:00am. Race starts at 9:00am at the SW corner of the park

(University Ave. & N. 25th Street).

Five closest bets will win autographed paraphernalia by the 2005-2006 Fighting Sioux Hockey Team.

If you wish to make a donation to the Make-A-Wish Foundation but cannot attend the race, please send checks made out to the UND SAAC, to:

Jason Holt - SAAC, PO Box 9013, Grand Forks, ND 58202.

For Questions - Contact Jason Holt at 701-777-2351 or

Meghan Mutrie at 218-779-2261.

UND Student-Athletes are not eligible to bet due to NCAA rules.

This is a wonderful chance to start your day before the Potato Bowl Parade and see your hockey team on a new level.

For a great cause

Now just to make sure, there isn't anyone on the team named "Reed" running this race right? ;)  :D  :lol: 

Just for those that think I'm insensitive on this, it's meant as a joke.

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

I thought the same thing when I first read the thread. I certainly hope that the mistakes made/lessons learned from that tragic event have been considered in the planning of this one.

Wasn't Hak on the team back then? Or did he miss it by a year or so?
