What Players Need To Be Able To Ask Themselves At The End Of Every Game

January 19, 2023

Brad Frost is the Head Coach for the University of Minnesota Women's Ice Hockey (@GopherWHockey) team. The Bethel University graduate has guided the Gophers to four NCAA national championships, six NCAA Frozen Four appearances, five WCHA regular season titles and three WCHA Final Face-Off championships. Frost concluded the 2015-16 season with a career record of 293-45-22 (.844) and has not had a team finish lower than second in the WCHA.

Frost asks his players to look in the mirror every game and answer a few questions: Did I give it my all? Did I play for the person next to me? Did I have the best attitude? These are questions that should be answered with a resounding " yes" every time. Sometimes the answer will be the same even after a loss. All Frost cares about is that the team focused on what they could control.
