The doors will open at 6 p.m. with the Colorado Buffaloes taking on the host UAF Nanooks at 7 p.m., followed by a 9 p.m. game between the Jackson State Tigers and the Austin Peay Governors. Instead of the consolation contest, KIAK will broadcast UAF's Central Collegiate Hockey Association game at fifth-ranked Michigan. KIAK will pick up broadcasts from the other teams entered in the tournament for its non-UAF broadcasts. Near capacity crowds are expected for each of the evening sessions during the four-day tournament. Tournament packages for all six sessions are still available, but getting all the same seats for each session may be difficult since individual session tickets have been on sale for 10 days.
Tournament packages are only available at the Patty Center ticket office.
