Several posts last week noted that scheduling of high profile
Holiday Tournaments seemed to be in decline. The Badger Show-
down, Mariucci Classic, and GLI were going strong in the West,
but the Eastern Tournaments (RPI and Syracuse Invitationals)
were fading. It seems now that UNH and UVM have cooked up a
revolving answer to the dearth of Holiday Hockey in the East:
UNH will likely host UVM, Notre Dame and North Dakota at the
Whittemore Center in December, 1999, followed by UNH + a CCHA
and WCHA team TBA at Gutterson Fieldhouse in December, 2000.
Tradition takes time to establish, but IMHO this has all the
makings of a terrific annual inter-league test ....
And let's not forget the new Governor's Cup tournament, matching the state
schools from VT (UVM), NH (UNH), ME (Maine), & MA (UMass-Lowell). It will
be held this year 11/27-11/28 at UML's Tsongas Arena. Since it's only a
few years old, I don't know if this tourny qualifies as a high profile
event yet, but like Jim said "tradition takes time to establish".
