GRAND FORKS, N.D. (AP) – The University of North Dakota men’s hockey team is the top-ranked team in the country for the fifth time this season.
UND regained the top spot in both the USA Today/USA Hockey Magazine poll and the USCHO.com poll, after a weekend series in which it beat No. 9 Denver and then tied the Pioneers the next night. UND moved up from No. 2 in the USCHO.com poll and from No. 3 in the other poll.
Previous No. 1 Minnesota State fell to No. 2 in the USCHO.com poll and to No. 3 in the USA Today/USA Hockey Magazine poll. Boston was second in that poll.
UND travels to unranked Western Michigan this weekend.
