50,000-Plus Airline Miles for 09/10 Seawolves

Over the course of the 2009-2010 WCHA hockey season the UAA Seawolves will travel about 40,000 miles on commercial airlines. My calculations total 37, 268 for the WCHA regular season including trips (in order) to Minneapolis, Minnesota; Madison, Wisconsin; Colorado Springs, Colorado; Denver, Colorado; Houghton, Michigan; St. Cloud, Minnesota; Mankato, Minnesota and the a non-conference trip to Fairbanks, Alaska.

An additional trip to St. Paul, Minnesota is anticipated to play in the WCHA Final Five which would expand the total to 42,306. Mileages for Seawolf NCAA playoff appearances could push the total well beyond 50,000 total miles.

The four NCAA playoff regional sites are located in Albany, New York; St. Paul, Minnesota; Fort Wayne, Indiana; Worcester, Massachusetts with the Frozen Four scheduled in Detroit, Michigan.

Now that is the optimism we like to see.

Maybe I should book my ticket to Motown now.

Another nice article in the ADN about our goalies. I think Doyle is trying to gain back some ground, Donald!
