I don't have the dates, but the following is a list of schools that UMass will play in its' first year back (Div. I hockey schools in caps): MERRIMACK (2) Villanova (2) Worcester State Iona Fitchburg State UMass-Dartmouth Amherst Trinity (2) Bowdoin Colby (2) New England College Gustavus Adolphus PRINCETON Salem State Connecticut College American International College (AIC) ARMY Holy Cross St. Anselms Sacred Heart North Adams State Rochester Institute of Technology (RIT) That adds up to 26 games....I don't know if there will be additional games scheduled. Second note: I don't know how UMass will refer to itself for hockey (UMass, UMass-Amherst or Massachusetts). In most other sports I believe they are called Massachusetts but the locals invariably refer to them as UMass. However, with UML also in HE it will be interesting to see what develops. As Mike Machnik pointed out, this is similar to Minnesota and UMD. My guess is the same type of labelling will be used here.
