    B1G Tournament 2022-23

    Nebraska was a rocky team this season. Expected to be good, then not, then good, then not. Big Ten has some incredible teams this year, each with interesting character. The Final Four will be exciting to see who knocks of whom among those big time teams. Today Tomorrow

    Gopher Women's Hockey 2022-23 Season

    Grace Zumwinkle and Taylor Heise are both named as prestigious finalists for the Patty Kazmaier Award. A great honor. Grace Zumwinkle is the best player in NCAA women's hockey except that Taylor Heise is that little extra rare freakish kind of scorer. Since Heise won the award last year, it's...

    Could this rumor be to add some heat to the situation?

    BREAKING: Mark Coyle and Lindsay Whalen announced today that Whalen will step down as head coach, effective immediately.

    Someone in this thread raised the topic of calling athletes by first name. That video calls Caitlin Clarke "Caitlin." I have also heard women announcers on TV call her "Caitlin." This side topic started in this thread.

    BREAKING: Mark Coyle and Lindsay Whalen announced today that Whalen will step down as head coach, effective immediately.

    At Gophers men's wrestling matches we yell first names. "Go Michael! Michael!! Michael!! Michael!!" Here I don't know the protocol and was and do use last name or first name with last name but I admit I previously as a follower did follow another example of using the first name just because I...

    BREAKING: Mark Coyle and Lindsay Whalen announced today that Whalen will step down as head coach, effective immediately.

    I don't know any of them. I have seen them. Heyer has said she us dedicated to her state school and seems passionate about turning it around, in her words. Getting other recruits to stay. I do not know her or the family but interpret that to be a mission at Minnesota I have no read on Battle...

    BREAKING: Mark Coyle and Lindsay Whalen announced today that Whalen will step down as head coach, effective immediately.

    Repeat: The Fab Four freshmen recently signed a one year lease for their apartment the four share off campus. All of them are dedicated to turning around this program. They are dedicated to Minnesota. They are locked in to coming back and signed a one year lease. And now they get the coaching...

    BREAKING: Mark Coyle and Lindsay Whalen announced today that Whalen will step down as head coach, effective immediately.

    The freshmen will be back and better than ever. The recent Star Tribune article said the four freshmen had signed a lease. They for sure will be back. I am guessing this increases the chance Borowicz coming back. I hope Rose is back. It is her team. I love watching Rose play. I do understand...

    Braun snubbed from B1G Freshman of the Year

    Congrats Mara Braun for making the All-Freshman team. That's great! Deserving McMahon was in another class and ranked a bit higher as a prospect coming out of high school. Awesome enthusiasm for Braun!

    Poor Coordination to Host Rotating Big Ten Women's Basketball Tournament and Rotating WCHA Women's Hockey Tournament the Same Year on Same Weekend

    That could be. I understand they are not the same. There is more to that, though. Recently the Minnesota-Wisconsin women's hockey series sold out for the first time, both games. Some people are working to build interest. I saw U of M students at the game including athletes from other sports...

    Poor Coordination to Host Rotating Big Ten Women's Basketball Tournament and Rotating WCHA Women's Hockey Tournament the Same Year on Same Weekend

    Big Ten schools Minnesota, Wisconsin and Ohio State play in both tournaments this weekend. In the future please stager the tournaments so they come in differing years.

    Poor Coordination to Host Rotating Big Ten Women's Basketball Tournament and Rotating WCHA Women's Hockey Tournament the Same Year on Same Weekend

    Minneapolis will be host city this weekend to both the rotating Big Ten women's basketball tournament and the rotating WCHA Final Facebook women's hockey tournament. Next time Minnesota hosts these tournaments they should stagger the years and definitely not on the same weekend the same year.

    Gopher Women's Hockey 2022-23 Season

    Minnesota leads the NCAA is goals and goals per game. Minnesota has the best offense. Taylor Heise (29), Abbey Murphy (26), and Grace Zumwinkle (25) are scoring leaders. The last month Minnesota's good defense/goaltending looked not as good.
