REPORT: North Dakota To Cut Women’s Hockey Program

According to Todd Milewski USCHO & the Wisconsin State Journal, the North Dakota Fighting Sioux will be cutting the sport of women’s hockey, among other sports, due to reductions in the school’s budget.

I'm hearing that women's hockey is out at North Dakota, which is cutting sports to address a budget crunch.

This is not official word, but there is expected to be an announcement at 3:30pm CT (4:30pm ET).

This had been rumored for several months now. The University saw a drop in funding from the state, which required campus-wide cuts in programs.
