Casey Fugleberg #5 Senior G.F. Red River Forward
================================================
Fugleberg is an explosive, skilled Forward for the Roughriders who displays a great work ethic. He is consistently among the top 5 scorers in the state who has excellent passing skills. He is one of the team Captains and exemplifies great leadership. Fugleberg is excellent on the special teams units for the Roughriders as he as netted many shorthanded goals in his high school career. Casey displays great hands near the net and can shoot the puck and pick corners. Fugleberg has a high GPA and belongs to DECA, National Honor Society as well as the National Honor Technical Society. He also participated in Math Track. In addition to hockey, he also participates in Football and Baseball at Red River High School. Head Coach Bill Chase said this about Casey: "Casey has a great work ethic at practice and at games. He is a great leader for us. A very respectful young man.

Logan Millican #8 Senior Bottineau/Rugby Forward
===============================================
The 5' 9" 175 lb Forward is the states leading scorer at press time and has set several single game, season and career scoring records for the Braves. The remarkable stat for Millican is he set the career scoring records in just three varsity seasons while the previous record holders for the Braves achieved over for varsity seasons. Logan has scored 50+ points in the last two seasons. He has really matured as a player and has evolved into a complete player. He has really worked hard to become a solid defensive player besides the production he displays in the offensive zone. Millican is a very good student/athlete who works very hard in the classroom. He has been one of the team leaders in supporting a couple of the local charities and organizing activities to benefit these organizations. Head Coach David Hoff said this about Logan: " Throughout Logan's youth playing career he could always score goals. He has an outstanding shot with a very quick release. I have really enjoyed watching him develop as a person and a player. He attends every optional skill development practice and is a weekly participant in our Breakfast Club Skill Development Program for community youth hockey players. He's the player who can't get enough ice time. He is there every time the ice is open."

The 2011-12 Girls Coaches Poll is now uploaded and Fargo South was the near unanimous choice to win it all
I apologize for the delay in this poll but finally received the last ballot today so have now uploaded the Girls 2011-12 Coaches Poll voted on by the 11-Head Coaches in the state. Fargo South has been tabbed the favorite to win the 2011-12 State Championship as the Bruins received 9 of the 11 first place votes. The Bruins finished last season with an overall record of [20-5-0] and a conference mark of [16-3-0]. They finished 3rd in the state tournament last year with a 3-2 overtime win over Grand Forks. Grand Forks, who finished 4th in the state tournament last year, is picked to finish as the second place team this year. The Knightriders finished at [15-9-2] overall and [13-4-2] in the conference last year. West Fargo and Fargo North who played in last years state championship game round out the top four teams picked for this years poll. A complete list of all eleven teams can be located by clicking on the "Coaches Poll" Tab at the top of the site.
East Region Head Coaches pick G.F. Red River to win the East
The East Region Coaches have tabbed G.F. Red River to win the East Region this year as they received 7 of 8 first place votes. Since teams cannot vote for themselves, the Roughriders garnished all votes from the remaining East Region Head Coaches. The defending East Region Champions as well as last years State Champions finished the 2010-11 season with an overall record of [21-6-0] and a region mark of [10-4-0]. The Grafton/Park River Spoilers were picked second and did gain one first place vote. The Spoilers who were the state runner-up team to the Riders will again be trying to knock off G.F. Red River this season. The Spoilers finished last year with a [15-11-1] overall record and a region record of [8-5-1]. Grand Forks Central came in as the third team in the poll with Fargo North rounding out the top four. The complete East Region Coaches Poll and points as well as last years records can be located under the Coaches Poll Tab on this site.
West Region Head Coaches pick Bismarck Century to win the West!
The West Region Coaches Poll is now finalized and located in the Coaches Poll Tab. The West Region Head Coaches vote on this poll and this year the nine coaches have tabbed Bismarck Century as the favorite to win the West Region for the second year. Last year the Patriots went a perfect [15-0-0] in the region and also won the West Region Tournament with a victory over Minot High in the championship game. Bottineau/Rugby has been selected second as the Braves missed out on the state tournament last year after going [16-8-0]-overall on the year and [11-4-0] in the Region. Bismarck High is picked third with Minot rounding out the top four teams in the West Region. Of the Nine Coaches votes, Century received 5 first place votes with Bottineau/Rugby and Bismarck High each gaining 2 first place votes. The remainder of the coaches poll and teams rankings can be found on this site under the Coaches Poll Tab.
NDHSAA Board of Directors passes Shootouts for Boys and Girls High School Hockey Games beginning this fall for the 2011-12 season.
The 2011-12 High School Hockey Season will have a new twist this fall as the NDHSAA Board passed at their annual meeting this week Shootouts for all North Dakota Boys and Girls High School Hockey Games. Here is the written regulations and policies as sent to me from Mr. Matt Fetsch of the NDHSAA who oversees high school hockey for the state.
*********************************************************************************************
During regular-season games, if the game remains tied at the end of the eight (8) minute overtime period, the teams will proceed to a shootout. The rules governing the shootout shall be the same as those listed under Rule 4, Section 7 - Penalty Shot.
The teams will not change ends for the shootout. The home team shall have the choice of shooting first or second. The teams shall alternate shots.
Three (3) players from each team shall participate in the shootout and they shall proceed in such order as the Head Coach selects. All players are eligible to participate in the shootout unless they are serving a ten-minute misconduct or have been assessed a game misconduct or game disqualification.
Once the shootout begins, the goalkeeper cannot be replaced unless he/she is injured. No warm up shall be permitted for a substitute goalkeeper.
Each team will be given three shots, unless the outcome is determined earlier in the shootout. After each team has taken three shots, if the score remains tied, the shootout will proceed to a "sudden death" format. No player may shoot twice until everyone who is eligible has shot. If, however, one team has fewer players eligible for the shootout than its opponent, both teams may select from among the players who have already shot. This procedure would continue until the team with fewer players has again used all eligible shooters.
Regardless of the number of goals scored during the shootout portion of overtime, the final score recorded for the game will give the winning team one more goal than its opponent, based on the score at the end of overtime.
The losing goalkeeper will not be charged with the extra goal against. The player scoring the game-winning goal in the shootout will not be credited with a goal scored in his/her personal statistics.
If a team declines to participate in the shootout procedure, the game will be declared as a shootout loss for that team. If a team declines to take a shot it will be declared as "no goal"
