Here are my 5 takeaways from Game 1 between UND and Omaha: www.grandforksherald.com/sports/und-h...

UND beats Omaha in Game 1 with key players out due to illness Fighting Hawks rookies Jack Kernan and Ollie Josephson tallied three-point games in a 5-3 victory.

Ben Strinden and Will Zellers came down sick Friday. So, UND moved Jack Kernan from center to wing. He responded with his first collegiate 3-point game. Dalton Andrew played for the first time in 2 months. He scored his first REA goal. Story: www.grandforksherald.com/sports/und-h...

UND moves up to No. 1 in the NPI. It's basically a dead heat among the top three teams right now - UND, Michigan and Michigan State.
