After months of deliberation, Bemidji State has decided to opt out of the NCAA House settlement. A look at what it means and where BSU plans to go from here.
Bemidji State women's hockey head coach Amber Fryklund announced on Thursday that Hailey Armstrong, Raeley Carney and Morgan Smith will captain the Bemidji State Women’s Hockey team for the upcoming 2025-26 season.
Amber Fryklund gave an honest assessment of her first season as Bemidji State’s head coach. While she’s pleased with the Beavers’ commitment to individual and collective growth, she’s not satisfied with where they finished in the WCHA.
Bemidji State will play each of the seven WCHA teams four times, twice at home and twice on the road. For the first time since the 2021-22 season, however, the Beavers will not play in a holiday tournament.
