Hedican Calling it Quits

09/16/2009 - 11:11 AM

Bret Hedican, the former North Saint Paul and Saint Cloud State star, has retired from the National Hockey League after 17 years of playing. The 39-year-old Hedican was drafted by the St. Louis Blues in 1988 and played in over a thousand NHL games for the Blues, Vancouver Canucks, Florida Panthers, Carolina Hurricanes and most recently the Anaheim Ducks.
 

The smooth skating defenseman won a Stanley Cup with the Hurricanes in 2006 alongside another former Husky, Matt Cullen. Hedican played in 108 playoff games total and also was a member of the 1992 and 1996 United States Olympic team. In his Husky career Hedican set the season record for goals by a defenseman with 18 in the 1990-1991.

That wasn’t the only difficulty for the Saint Cloud defense as they also gave up 184 yards on the ground.

Receiver Fred Williams also had a stellar day catching ten passes for 97 yards and a T-D. The Huskies are now 0-3 on the young season and return home this coming weekend to take on Northern State.

Conduct Violations to Hit SCSU Football

09/10/2009 - 3:20 AM

Code of Conduct violations may leave the Saint Cloud State Football Team with fewer members come Saturday against Wayne State. Sergeant Marty Sayer of the Saint Cloud Police Department confirmed that eight individuals were cited for underage drinking and that three people were given tickets for noise violations last weekend.  KVSC has confirmed so far  four of the 11 cited are current football players.

The disturbance came early Sunday morning at a house party at 1027 7th Avenue in St.Cloud. Tickets were given for noise violations to Junior Defensive End Josh Popanda, Junior Defensive Back Tyler Niedfeldt and Junior Defensive Lineman Joe Winandy. Redshirt Freshman Cory Callahan was also cited for underage consumption and fleeing on foot.

University officials said that suspensions have been given out but the players involved and how long they're suspended have not been released yet. Head Football Coach Scott Underwood acknowledged the situation and violations of the Student-Athlete Code of Conduct, but declined to give names and the exact discipline at this time. Unidentifed sources close to the team believe that the suspensions could last throughout the season and may involve players that have started for the Huskies in the past. Stay tuned to 88.1FM and KVSC.ORG for more information.
