The Hornets’ 9-5-2 finish and 34 goals scored are new school records for the program. the team also tied a school record for goals allowed in a season, set in 1998, with 22.

The team will await the winner of the Montana/Northern Arizona contest to determine where they will travel for the Big Sky Tournament. If the Grizzlies win, the Hornets will travel to Missoula to take on Montana in the first round. A Lumberjack win will send the Hornets to Pocatello, Idaho, to face the Bengals in the first round.
