Headed to the championship!



LET'S GO REDHAWKS!! Anyone catch the game of Miami v. Bemidji State in the Frozen Four last night? I didn't have a chance to watch the whole thing, but I did catch some of it and am so excited for our hockey team as we head to the championship on Saturday night! Watch it on ESPN at 7:00pm eastern.

Can you tell we're a little obsessed with Miami Hockey? As Matt has blogged before, ice sports are big on Miami's campus. Not only is our hockey team amazing, but our synchronized skating team is great as well and recently placed 7th at the World Championships! Many of our students will play broomball—which is kinda like hockey, but you wear tennis shoes instead of skates, play with a ball instead of a puck, and a stick that shaped like a broom instead of a hockey stick. OK, so basically what it has in common with hockey is that you play on the ice. It’s so much fun to watch, and even more fun to play. As a student here, you might have a chance to play our University President, Dr. Hodge!

If you’re ever in town when there’s a hockey game—I definitely encourage you to come over to the Goggin (our ice arena) to cheer on the RedHawks! You’ll be in for a treat!(literally, hit up the concession stands!)
