When is the Augie hockey schedule coming out?

And that completes an incredible roster rebuild...

Cody put together an intoxicating combo of guards, wings, and bigs from a variety of backgrounds. Now we just need to see a schedule to keep the hype train going.

Cody continues to cook. 2 interesting transfers, from Drake and a young man from Switzerland transferring from a college in Florida.

Is Awit Mamer still committed? Also, I heard Cody say on a recent podcast that he would like 14-15 on his roster.

Apparently Awit Mamer is now committed to Emporia State as well.

Cody offered Blake Ellwein from Huron. His dad Jay used to play for Augie:

Previous coach had 3 recruits. Wonder about their status.

2/3 still committed. One from Norfolk, NE changed to NWMSU

Brooke Jensen from Vermilion was originally committed but has since decommitted. Her mom is Becky Flynn-Jensen who was a prolific player from Wakonda.

I know there isn't much discussion of the women's team on this board, but I just watched a Dakota News Now story on the new coach, Matt Vogel. Seems like a logical hire.

What stood out to me was the news that there was a mass exodus after the season with only three players returning for next year. What the heck happened?

Based on the fact that Awit Mamer isn't mentioned in this article I think it's safe to assume he won't be at Augie this fall.

He was announced previously here

It's still preposterous that it took Augie this long to find a coach for what should be a high level D2 job.

Last year's coach really pulled a Mike Power. Hopefully for your sakes, it doesn't set you as far back as the Mustangs fell.

Glad you brought Awit Mamer up. Since he is not on Verbal Commits, I forgot about him. Looking at his twitter page it appears Awit is still committed to the Viks.

Between graduation and transfers Augustana men lost 7. There are 2 incoming freshmen and 4 transfers incoming. Perhaps Cody is looking for 1 more?
