Augie Hockey team on long, cold, dark road trip to Alaska for 2 weekends
SIOUX FALLS, S.D. (Dakota News Now) -The Augustana hockey team has certainly put on the miles thus far. They haven’t been home much.
But this road trip is unlike any other. They are in Alaska for 2 weeks where it’s cold, it’s dark and they will play 4 games on 2 weekends before coming home. But head coach Garrett Raboin thinks it’s actually an ideal situation for his guys.
Augustana Hockey Coach Garrett Raboin says, “These are the fun road trips that you remember. There’s moments throughout your college career and some of it doesn’t have anything to do with hockey. It’s being together with your best friends. And our guys get a chance to do that and as a staff we’re excited to tag along…”
The Vikings play two more games next weekend. But their next home game isn’t until January 17th. They split the 2 games at Fairbanks and play Anchorage this weekend.
