Yahoo Sports

Apr. 14—GRAND FORKS — Brasen Boser called his grandfather recently to tell him he's going to enter the transfer portal when it opens. "He was a little nervous," the Arizona State sophomore defenseman said.

The Minot native called back Monday night with an update: He's coming home to play for UND. "He was pretty ecstatic," Boser said. "He was yelling on the phone.

It was a pretty special phone call. " Boser, a Minot native, has committed to UND for next season. He has two years of college eligibility remaining.

"It's pretty special," Boser said. "I feel like anyone from North Dakota could say that's the spot you want to play college hockey. I enjoyed my time (at Arizona State), but I'm pumped to be a part of it.

" The 5-foot-11, 178-pound defender is a reliable, steady presence on the back end. He led Arizona State in ice time this season, averaging 22:40 as a sophomore. Boser posted identical stat lines as a freshman and sophomore at Arizona State — two goals and seven points.
