Playing at Ralph Engelstad Arena in Grand Forks is the pinnacle of college hockey. The largest capacity arena in the nation, just below the tier of NHL arenas, it's a moment to soak in for any visiting player.

The Sun Devils seemed to get too caught up in the allure of the arena as they tripped and fell in Friday's opener by a 5-2 final.

There was no encounter with Gibson Homer tonight, as freshman phenom Jan Špunar got the nod between the pipes for the FIghting Hawks, opposite Samuel Urban in his third consecutive start for the Sun Devils.
