History
[edit ]In the summer of 2021, in accordance with plans for Augustana University to raise its athletic programs from NCAA Division II to Division I, the university announced that there was interest in adding a men's ice hockey program.[3] After receiving donations from several sources, spearheaded by T. Denny Sanford, the school was able to move forward with plans for the program. On October 5, the school broke ground on the Midco Arena, a 40ドル million, 3,000-seat venue that the team will use as its home rink.[4] The Vikings played their first five home games off campus at Denny Sanford Premier Center.[1] Midco Arena opened on January 26, 2024, and the Vikings played their first game at the arena on the same date.[5]
The program is the first varsity ice hockey team at any level to call South Dakota home.
On April 18, 2022, the program announced the hiring of Minnesota Golden Gophers' assistant coach Garrett Raboin as the team's inaugural head coach.[6] On May 17, 2022, it was announced that the Vikings will become a member of the Central Collegiate Hockey Association, playing a transitional schedule its first two years before playing a full CCHA schedule come the 2025–26 season.[7]
