| REFEREE SPOTLIGHT- WELCOME, BROOK LYNN |

MEET BROOK LYNN VIKE

Hi Puck Yea Hockey!

My name is Brook Lynn Vike. I have been officiating USA Hockey since 2002 when I was just 13 years old. In 2008 I started officiating High School hockey and in 2011 I was able to join the USA Hockey Officials Development Program and worked games in the NAHL, NA3HL, the MNJHL (now a part of USPHL) and in 2017 I started officiating in the NCAA Div III (MIAC). I was fortunate enough to be selected by MSHSL to work the Girls State Tournament for 3 years and made a return to the NAHL this past winter. For me, I love being a part of the game and officiating was a way for me to stay a part of the game and develop further. I started playing hockey again last year (after 20 years of not playing) so you may see sporting a full cage (Fishbowl) from time to time instead just a whistle and half shield.
