Re: UMass Lowell 2014-2015 Season: The March to March

Just curious, anyone heading out to Notre Dame to watch the games? I would have love to have gone to South Bend but it was not in the cards this year - maybe next time they make the trip.

I know MaryK and Go-UML are going out.

I was planning on the trip, but held back to the Revs playoff possibilities. Glad I did now.

As Monty pointed out, MaryK and I are going out with a couple others. Hoping that we find more out there. We know there are some Alumni pre-game events set up.

Looking forward to the trip although I should probably get back to my work at the office.

Cool! Have a great time! I hope to hear that UML was well represented. And more importantly, I hope the team comes home with some points.

Can we play them in January at their place?

The plan is for the Sun Devils, who won the American Collegiate Hockey Association championship last season, to play a hybrid schedule in 2015 with a mixture of DI and ACHA competition, followed in 2016 by a full DI schedule independent of conference alignment. The team plans to transition to full Division I membership in 2017 and will join a Division I conference, either the National Collegiate Hockey Conference (NCHC) or the Western Collegiate Hockey Association (WCHA).

I read somewhere (Twitter, maybe?) that Pegula was going to talk to the University of Buffalo about their hockey program. I can't find any news story on it, but it's an interesting idea.

Buffalo should have done this LONG ago but in that critical period the athletic director/president/whoever decided to resurrect the football team. Since then, as a MAC school, its been nothing but a money suck for them. I think UB, just by geography, could have been a power or pretty good. Hockey still has different dynamics. ASU can work because the school is so large. But I think hockey can work in other places just because the market is favorable because of people who like hockey.

Then we have Amherst with their money sucking Ftb team. Someone sent me the article from the Globe about how they are mucho $ subsidized. Seeing's how my kid is paying the $ to go to State school I would rather they spent the big mucho $$$ subsidizing the education part of education. Just sayin'

Does UML ever coordinate trips to long distance destinations for Riverhawk games like this for students and alumni?

I think the school usually has tickets available for purchase, and there may be an get together event at these long distance road games but otherwise you're always on your own for transportation and lodging. They may have had a student bus for the Frozen Four in Pittsburgh though.
