Wild Love

Anoka Ramsey Community College student Katherine Smith loves her fiancé Jared, her children Kylie and Shawn and her Minnesota Wild. Smith discovered her love of hockey after meeting her fiancé Jared. Although she did not grow up watching the sport her children are being raised on hockey. She has attended more than eight games wearing her Minnesota Wild gear and enjoys savoring a warm pretzel while she cheers her favorite team.

Forward Cal Clutterback is Smith’s favorite player because, “he gives the most hits in the NHL and is exciting to watch”. Smith believes head coach Todd Richards has successfully led the Wild to their current ranking of sixth in the league. Smith also enjoys keeping tabs on the Colorado Avalanche and Vancouver Canucks teams.

So the next time you are sitting in your living room watching the Minnesota Wild on your television you might just see their number one fan dressed in her Wild gear cheering for the winning goal.
