.25 l.f.

Background
Ice Hockey at NDAC became an intercollegiate sport in 1922. By the mid-1930s, it was listed as a minor sport and by the end of the 1930s, it was an intramural sport. There was a slight revival of intercollegiate competition in the early 1950s, but that was short-lived.

In the mid-1980s, an NDSU Hockey Club was established and won a number of national club championships. See: NDSU Bison Hockey Club
