This Week
Top-ranked North Dakota returns to NCHC action when it hosts the Omaha Mavericks on Friday and Saturday at Ralph Englestad Arena.

The Fighting Hawks enter the week tied with St. Cloud State atop the NCHC standings. Both teams have 27 points, 14 better than fifth-place Omaha.

Friday's game has been designated a “Green-Out” game, with fans encouraged to wear green to the game as UND sports its green uniforms at home for the first time at the current Ralph Engelstad Arena.

NCHC teams this weekend will begin wearing their traditional road dark jerseys while at home and will wear their traditional white jerseys while on the road (conference games only).
