\u201cWe are thrilled to playing in this game in Brainerd,\u201d said Beavers coach Jim Scanlan in a statement. \u201cThey have a terrific hockey community and they have always supported their teams with pride and passion that northern Minnesota is known for.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cThis is a great opportunity for us to bring women\u2019s college hockey to young girls and college fans that might not have had a chance to come out and watch a game in person,” added SCSU coach Eric Rud. “I know people will be impressed with the skill of the college game and we can\u2019t wait to be a part of this event.\u201d<\/p>\n
The women\u2019s Hall of Fame game will raise awareness for the U.S. Hockey Hall of Fame Museum in Eveleth, Minn., along with bringing women\u2019s Division I hockey to a local community.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe are pleased to be part of this game and I am personally excited to be able to watch this game in our barn,\u201d said Brainerd Amateur Hockey Association president Sam Blum. \u201cThe game gives us a unique opportunity to create access for spectators to watch a DI Women\u2019s hockey game in our area.\u201d A capacity crowd is expected for the game.<\/p>\n
Proceeds will go to Sharing Bread Soup Kitchen in Brainerd.<\/p>\n
\u201cThis is a fantastic organization that helps out those in need on a daily basis,\u201d said Brainerd High School girls coach Jim Ernster. \u201cA safe, inviting atmosphere allows people to get hot meals seven days a week, no questions asked. To have the opportunity to help out an organization that embodies humility and grace is indeed a privilege.\u201d<\/p>\n
Additional details of the event will be announced in coming months.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
