WEST ST. PAUL, MN - The Minnesota Sports Broadcast Network announces today that an extensive package of Roseau Rams and Warroad Warriors hockey will be streamed live on MSBN’s website, www.mnsportsnetwork.com.
The package will include a total of 25 Roseau Rams hockey games (20 boys, five girls), and a package of 20 Warroad Warrior hockey games (16 boys, four girls). Fans can tune into game free of charge, and can also go back and listen to archives of the games, again free of charge.
The two Northwest Minnesota schools are among the most well-known high school hockey towns in the United States, and are known for their successful teams.
