Despite battling two injuries this season in the North American Hockey League, goaltender Brock Kautz was in net when his team won the league championship.
Now, the Rochester native will aim to bring home more hardware to Mariucci Arena.
Kautz announced his commitment to Minnesota on May 28, making him the fourth goalie set for the team’s 2015-16 roster. He’s alongside senior Ryan Coyne, sophomore Nick Lehr and fellow freshman Eric Schierhorn.
“We’ll probably rotate some games early,” Minnesota head coach Don Lucia said. “Then, if somebody starts to step forward right away, we’ll give them an opportunity to run with it.
