On any given Wednesday during the cold winter months of Boone, sophomore accounting major Karst Bouma gets to campus at 10 a.m., attends classes all day and then goes to his fraternity meeting from 6-7 p.m. When his fraternity brothers go home, Bouma gets in a car with his teammates at 7:30 p.m. and drives to Winston-Salem, for the only available ice time for the App State club ice hockey team.
The App State club ice hockey team was created in 1997 and allows players of different skill levels to compete in over 10 games per season, according to the team’s website.
