The 2024 indoor season kicks off today, but not without some travel woes ❄️☃️

The Bison Team Cup in Fargo is still on, with UND and MSUM still looking to make the trip to square off against the Bison. SDSU will no longer be making the trip due to weather.

UMary hosts their triangular today, but at least one side of the triangle is no longer intact. Minot State will not be making the trip due to weather, but certainly UMary and Bismarck State College will still square off.

Stay safe and stay warm today wherever you are!
