Program depth.......a very interesting statistic

#1 ranking means something only at the end of the year.

Yes they may have a #1 ranking today but they still have to win the trny to be ranked number 1 at the end of the year.<br><br>Maybe, i'm missing something. My main point is Moorhead has had good and maybe even very good teams over the last 6 years at all levels. HOWEVER, they just cannot seem to get...

blue line chip for the gophers

I expect Hagemo to make a significant contribution to the Gophs next year. Lee, Ammerman, Anderson, Giligoski and Hillen are all good players but Hagemo has the fire and tools that separate him from almost anyone he plays. Hagemo would still have a senior year to play this fall should he have contin...
