I am currently living and working in Seattle. I am the owner of The Law Office of James McKain, a law firm that practices primarily civil litigtion against governmental entities and criminal defense. My brief time with the Jayhawk hockey team is some of the best time I spent at KU. even from half a country away I will be rooting for KU hockey!

 

Abrahamson, Tytus - 9/27/2011 1:47:17 PM

Played 1999-2001, club president and part of the group that restarted the club after it faltered in the mid-90's. It was a humble beginning but Brian Luhrman took over after me and I'm so thrilled to see it thriving and strong today. Matching uniforms and everything! I'm now in NYC pursuing my career in music and still actively playing in net.

 

Solem, Andy - 9/26/2011 2:14:11 PM

Played 1986-1987. Live in Glenview Illinois. I was one of the founding players along with Brian Farrell (listed above) and John Wiedeman (current radio voice of the Chicago Blackhawks). I was the original goalie back in 1986. The first year, we played with 1968 football jerseys donated by the Athletic Director. Hung up the pads years ago as the Jayhawks were my last organized team - Glad to see the program thriving.

Player of the Week... Parker is not going to see much ink on the scoresheet, but works hard game in and game out.  Playing with 10 skaters against 18 opposition skaters is tough, but Parker was able to play an energy game with an aggressive forecheck through 2 solid outings vs. NIU on the weekend. Parker is the 3rd consecutive Freshman recognized as Player of the Week.

Coach Berard - 1/9/2012 11:04:20 AM

KU Hockey has had a tough season to date. We are, however looking forward to matching up against NIU and SLU that present KU with opportunity to make a run at moving up in the MACHA standings. We also have a "Border Showdown" on the hirizon. Even though hockey doesn't have the same history within the Border Showdown as other sports do, we still care about representing KU to best of our ability. The Hockey Border Showdown is not just another game. This is the one game every year where passion and intensity are heightened. I don't need to worry about our club's physical and mental preparation. The prospect of representing an entire community in front of 5800 passionate hockey fans serves to draw the best out of our athletes.
