2017-2018 Season A Success For ASU Women's Hockey

ASU Women's Hockey has officially completed its second season and has had tremendous success over the year. We had so many firsts throughout the season and are excited to continue the development and success for many years to come.

This year, we had our first overtime win in program history in dramatic fashion.

We hosted our first Military Appreciation game and were able to donate to our troops overseas.

We earned our first away sweep over none other than our cross-town rival, Grand Canyon University. In the same weekend, Jordan Nash-Boulden had her first career shutout and the program's first shutout.

We swept Denver for the second year in a row. The Sun Devils are now 4-0 against the Pioneers.

We had our first class of graduating seniors.

We earned our first playoff bid.

The team earned their first national ranking spot. The Sun Devils end the season ranked as the #15 team in the nation.

Did we mention that we swept our cross-town rivals?

With all of our success, we want to thank a few groups that have helped us so far.
To the Arizona hockey community, thank you for cheering us on whenever we were at home and following along with our journey. Your chants, cheers, and support over the season has contributed to our play more than you know. Also, a big thank you to the Sun Devil hockey family and the endless support that they provide to us.
To the media, specifically Cronkite Sports, State Press, and Ice Time Hockey SW, thank you for providing coverage and support to our program. From 7am practices to away games, you never missed a beat and were a large part of our success.

We are humbled to have been the start of women's collegiate hockey on the West Coast and we have no plans of stopping that momentum anytime soon. We are excited for the development of our program and for our largest incoming class to arrive to Tempe this Fall to build upon the success we've already had. Our journey to the national tournament is something we will work to accomplish very soon.

THANK YOU, SUN DEVIL NATION!

​A few parting words from our seniors...

Thank you to the fans and families for your endless love and support this season. The energy was insane and we carried that spirit in every game we played. It's still hard to believe it's over for the 4 of us but we could not be more thankful to have these last two years to start something special and end our careers. This program will be close to my heart forever.

It is hard to think that our collegiate hockey careers are over, but the game will forever be in our hearts. We are so thankful for the support of friends, family, and everyone in the hockey community who cheered us on from day one. I am so excited to see all the success this program has in store for the future. I am so grateful that I got to play the greatest game in the world.

To all of our supporters near and far, thank you for following our journey these past two years. I appreciate all of you in the stands at our games. It's amazing to play for ya'll, as well as ourselves. I wasn't expecting to play in college and I am beyond grateful to have made new family through ASU Women's Hockey. Thank you all and I am eager to see how the program will progress and succeed.

To everyone who believed in the program and what we could do with it, thank you. We couldn't have taken this program where we did in two years without the support from our crazy fans and family members. It is sad to see all four of us leave behind a program we watched grow from the very first day, but I can't wait to see how much this program will grow and continue to succeed in the future. I am so lucky I was able to play with such a great group of teammates and captains to finalize my last years of competitive hockey.
