PHOTO FEATURE: UND at the Frozen Four

What happens in Vegas stays in Vegas — except when UND photographers are on hand, to capture Frozen Four excitement for all to see

From across North America and beyond to the Vegas Strip, college hockey fans, including a few thousand alums and friends of UND, converged on the 2026 NCAA “Frozen Four” national championship last week.

For UND fans, the Las Vegas Frozen Four brought a familiar feeling, but one they hadn’t enjoyed in a decade, when the Fighting Hawks pounced on Tampa, Fla., to win its eighth hockey title in school history, in 2016. There was a palpable sense, this time, that “UND is back” — and the Green-and-White faithful didn’t disappoint, with a legendary Vegas takeover in support of their favorite team on college hockey’s biggest stage.

And in both Las Vegas as well as back home in Grand Forks, UND photographers were on hand to capture it all. With their compliments, enjoy an exceptional Frozen Four website featuring dozens of Frozen Four player, game and fan photos, put together just for you.
