Sauer Wins Starting Job at Michigan While Gophers Rotate

This news may not come as a huge surprise to some, but this week it was confirmed that freshmen goalie Billy Sauer has played well in fall practices and will most likely be the every game starter for Michigan this season, beating out senior back-up Noah Ruden.

Minnesota coach Don Lucia was quoted in this Minneapolis Star-Tribune article as saying that junior Kellen Briggs will start the season as the team's number one goalie, but talented freshmen Jeff Frazee will also see playing time. Briggs will get the first start of the season against Alaska-Fairbanks, but Frazee will probably start the next night.
