Report: Jayden Perron transferring to Michigan from North Dakota

According to a report from Cam Robinson, Content Director and Director of Film Scouting at Elite Prospects, sophomore forward Jayden Perron will transfer to Michigan.

Perron, a 5-foot-9, 175-pound forward from Winnipeg, Manitoba, for North Dakota, entered the transfer portal with a do not contact designation.

Collegiate Performance at UND:

2023-2024 Season (Freshman): Perron appeared in all 40 games, tallying 11 goals and 7 assists for a total of 18 points. Notably, he scored three power-play goals and maintained a minus-1 rating.

2024-2025 Season (Sophomore): In 31 games, he recorded 10 goals and 9 assists, accumulating 19 points. Six of his goals were scored on the power play, and he had a minus-2 rating.

Career Totals at UND:

Games Played: 70

Goals: 21

Assists: 16

Total Points: 37

Power-Play Goals: 9

Prior to his collegiate career, Perron showcased his offensive capabilities with the Chicago Steel in the United States Hockey League (USHL).

USHL Performance with Chicago Steel:

2021-2022 Season: 17 goals and 28 assists (45 points) in 60 games.

2022-2023 Season: 24 goals and 48 assists (72 points) in 61 games.

Perron’s entry into the transfer portal follows a coaching change at UND, with Dane Jackson recently appointed as the new head coach. While his portal entry includes a “do not contact” designation—suggesting he may have already identified his next destination—there has been no official confirmation regarding his transfer to the University of Michigan.

State’s new junior duck stamp overall winner is 9-year veteran of contest

BISMARCK, N.D. (KFYR) – North Dakota has a new junior duck stamp winner.

On Saturday afternoon, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service held an awards ceremony for the state contest at the Heritage Center in Bismarck. 900 kids submitted entries.

16-year old, Gabe Coleman, from Baldwin, took first place overall with his entry which is an acrylic painting of a pair of blue-winged teal. Gabe has been entering the contest since he was in kindergarten, but this year is the first time he took best of show.

“For all my nine years, this is what I have been trying to do, and I finally achieved it this year. To win it is actually amazing”, said Coleman, who is a homeschooled sophomore.

Coleman has another reason to celebrate. As the top finisher in the state, his winning artwork advanced to the national competition. He ranked among the top 15 out of 13-thousand entries in the national contest.

Runner-Up Best of Show (Second Place) in the North Dakota contest this year went to first time-entrant Kamryn Nissen from Grand Forks. Kamryn, a sophomore at Thompson Public School, used colored pencils to design her entry of a mallard drake in eclipse plumage.

The Conservation Message winner was Brandi Agnew, a seventh grader from Menoken, with her message: “Protect the prairie; preserve the hunt.”

The call for entries is an educational program that uses science and art to encourage students to explore wildlife, conservation, and recreation.

FOMO 10/40 Creamery to bring ice cream to small business across North Dakota

FOMO 10/40 Creamery to bring ice cream to small business across North Dakota

BISMARCK, N.D. (KFYR) – A grant from the North Dakota Department of Agriculture is helping a small business in Bismarck expand.

FOMO 10/40 Creamery, located in the central part of the city, is planning to sell its ice cream wholesale at other small businesses across the state.

For owner Andrew Hershey, consistent quality is important, so he doesn’t expect to sell his ice cream in grocery chains quite yet.

“We want to really support the small, local businesses to help them keep open, but also give them the opportunity to sell our product first. I think local North Dakota ice cream sold locally, within a local business, means more to me,” said Hershey.

With the grant, FOMO will also be doing a brand refresh by updating its space.

The business started as an ice cream trailer in 2019.
