We have 30 guys, so we have to spread the money out. Losing 1.7 scholarships doesn't affect just one or two people; we're talking about five or maybe six guys. We can't put the program in a position where we get penalized year in and year out with 1.7 scholarships because we're not taking care of our academics.

My dad had come from Ireland and worked in the mills. My mom was Scottish and worked as a domestic,.. I didn't have any relations who had ever gone to college. I knew I could handle the academics, but the mills were working. People were making a lot of money.

You have to understand, when you're a part of UAF hockey, your time is constantly pulled out by a number of different ways. You have appearances, and talking to kids in schools, and dealing with academics and all the work they have to do as part of the hockey team. Honestly, the guys are more relaxed on the road. They don't have any of those usual pressures.

This tournament has traditionally been a good one for us. I think the break was good for the guys, because they did not have to focus on their academics, and we were able to arrive here earlier, which gave us more time to practice on the West Coast.
