UND Men’s Hockey Team in Top Spot in Both National Polls

GRAND FORKS, N.D. (AP) — The University of North Dakota men's hockey team has supplanted Quinnipiac atop both national polls.

UND this week moved up from No. 2 to the top spot in both the USCHO.com poll and the USA Today/USA Hockey Magazine poll.

The Fighting Hawks have won eight straight games, including a sweep of Colorado College last weekend in the National Collegiate Hockey Conference quarterfinals.

UND faces Minnesota Duluth in the NCHC Frozen Faceoff semifinals on Friday.
