North Dakota received 27 of a possible 28 first-place votes, totaling 223 points to sit comfortably in first in the poll. Denver was tabbed to finish as the runner-up in the NCHC, garnering the lone other first-place vote in the poll, while compiling 185 points. Min- nesota Duluth (173 points) claimed the third spot 12 points back of DU. St. Cloud State came in fourth in the Preseason Poll with 126 points, 10 more than fifth-place Western Michigan. Omaha landed sixth in the poll with 96 points, while Colorado College (45 points) edged Miami (44) by a point for seventh place in the Preseason Poll. The Fighting Hawks captured the program’s third Penrose Cup to close the 2019-20 campaign and would become the only NCHC team to win it four times if UND repeats as NCHC regular-season champions. North Dakota was also the preseason favorite in 2014- 15 and 2016-17, with UND proving the media correct in 2014-15, the only time the NCHC preseason favorite has won the Penrose Cup. Minnesota Duluth topped the NCHC Preseason Poll each of the last two seasons. UND returns 19 letterwinners from last season’s team that went 17-4-3-2 in conference play, including Hobey Hat Trick finalist and senior forward Jordan Kawaguchi and 2019-20 NCHC Rookie of the Year Shane Pinto. North Dakota also added two NHL draft picks to its blue line, while bringing back senior Matt Kiersted, who garnered Second-Team All-NCHC last season. Despite losing 10 letterwinners, the Pioneers have 16 letterwinners coming back to Denver this season after placing third in the NCHC in 2019-20. DU has nine NHL draft picks on its roster after bringing in four NHL prospects as freshmen this season. Denver also has plenty of experience with eight seniors on the squad and sophomore forward Bobby Brink, who earned NCHC All-Rookie Team hon- ors a season ago. UMD has 18 letterwinners returning in 2020-21, and added eight newcomers, including two transfers and three NHL draft picks. The Bulldogs have eight NHL prospects on their roster this season, including All-American forwards and juniors Noah Cates and Cole Koepke. Minnesota Duluth was the runner-up in the NCHC last season, but lost six letterwinners, including Hobey Baker winner Scott Perunovich and two-time NCHC Goaltender of the Year Hunter Shepard. St. Cloud State is second among all NCHC teams with 20 letterwinners back in 2020-21, after placing fifth a season ago. The Huskies return Second-Team All-NCHC senior goaltender David Hrenak in net, and boast four NHL draft picks on their roster. Right behind SCSU in the Preseason Poll, the Broncos finished fourth in the NCHC last season, but saw six players sign NHL contracts during the offseason. WMU returns 16 letterwinners from 2019-20 and add 11 freshmen to the mix. Omaha leads all NCHC squads with 21 letterwinners back this year and was predicted to finish in the same spot as last season – sixth place. Colorado College, which placed last in 2019-20, adds 14 newcomers to its 16 returning letterwinners, while Miami, which was seventh a year ago, has 18 returning letterwinners and 10 newcomers. A total of 28 ballots were submitted by local media members from each school, as well as select national media. Points were award- ed on a descending scale with a first-place vote worth eight points, a second-place vote worth seven points and so on. @TheNCHC | #NCHCHockey /TheNCHC @TheNCHC TheNCHC NCHC.tv The 2020-21 NCHC Preseason All-Conference Team, as selected by media, will be revealed on Tuesday.

    AN IOTA’S WORTH NEW Save the Date! d entennial Ce C lebration d 100 YEARS IOTA CHAPTER | 1920-2020 | Sept 23- 26, 2021 The Alumni and Parents Newsletter | IOTA Chapter | ZETA BETA TAU | University of Denver | Fall 2020 IOTA ADVISORS’ UPDATE It has been an interesting and challenging fall quarter. The men of IOTA have risen to the challenge. We have initiated 16 new brothers in a mostly virtual and man-on-man recruitment process. The chapter is hoping to initiate more brothers later this quarter and then have recruitment in both winter and spring quarters with a goal of having at least 30 new brothers join our ranks this school year. Unfortunately, we did not have brothers return to DU this quarter and had some brothers leave us for finan - cial and other reasons. We now have over 80 men in the chapter with hopes of being near 100 by the end of spring quarter. Due to COVID-19 we had to make all rooms in the chapter house singles this school year and only allow those living in the chapter house to eat meals in the house. We have instituted enhance cleaning and safety protocols. We did have some brothers living in the chapter house come down with COVID-19. They were temporarily moved into quarantine and the other non-infected brothers moved into isolation. Thankfully no one was seriously ill. The University has been providing the students with regular access to testing. We still are having some brothers infected. DU recently went to all virtual classes and the student body will be leaving campus November 20th with all finals online.
