SAAC Hosts Second Annual "Haunted Ravine"

ASHLAND, WI - Northland's SAAC (Student Athlete Advisory Committee) hosted its second annual "Haunted Ravine" on Sunday, which was open to all members of the surrounding community. The "Haunted Ravine" featured student-athletes appearing as zombies, goblins, mummies and more to create a spooky environment through the ravine underneath Northland's well-known bridges. Members of the community were invited to begin their risky walk by entering the eerie graveyard, continuing through a tarp tunnel of terror, the ghoulish Night before Christmas town, finding the body-less head and eventually exiting through Northland's haunted hall of fame. The fee for having this bone-chilling experience was a food item which would be donated to The Brick, a food donation service in Ashland.

Junior Cassie Baumgarten (volleyball) envisioned this shrilling event last year and with its initial success, SAAC was determined to continue this Halloween. SAAC administrators Katie Groschel (softball), Louis Corcoran (men's cross country), Matt Hoszko (hockey) and Kert Wuestenhagen (men's soccer) helped facilitate this vision and the success continued with 146 brave visitors this Sunday. The "Haunted Ravine" was held from 5:30-6:30 for children and then for adults from 7:00-9:00. SAAC looks forward to hosting this event again next year!

Northland College Inter-squad Game

After a big week of practice, hockey is officially in full swing here at Northland. Last night we had our annual Blue vs. White inter-squad game after a full day of volunteering for Ashland's Youth Hockey Day. It was a great game that gave us the opportunity to form a little more chemistry within the lines. Our pace was high considering the shortened bench on both sides and the compete level was definitely there was well. Overall the team looks great, our passes are clicking, the systems are working smooth and the entire team is buying into working hard this upcoming year. I am looking forward to this week of practice as we prepare for Adrian this Friday and Saturday!
