The Sports Drive: NMU Kicks off CCHA Play This Weekend + Eric Mason Talks Redmen Football During Homecoming Week

Marquette, MISeptember 28, 2022 – The Northern Michigan Wildcats hockey team gets no warmup to the start of their season. As soon as the NCAA allows competition, October 1, NMU is in action against CCHA foe Bowling Green at the Berry Events Center. The two teams were both picked to finish in the top 3, so Luke and Tyler give their expectations for the series.

The Marquette Redmen football team is not off to the start they were hoping, sitting at 1-4. Head Coach Eric Mason talked some of their struggles, but also some positives, as they head into their homecoming game against Escanaba Friday night.
