In order to build on its most successful regular season in more than a decade, Cornell men’s hockey will have to travel to Northern Michigan and host the newest team in college hockey, the Athletics Department announced on Tuesday.
The Red’s out-of-conference schedule includes a season-opening series against Michigan State on Oct. 26 and 27, as previously reported by The Sun. Cornell will also make a rare trip to Michigan’s Upper Peninsula for two games against the Wildcats, and Arizona State will travel 2,013 mi to East Hill for a weekend series.
Those six games plus the previously announced Red Hot Hockey game against Harvard at Madison Square Garden Nov. 24 comprise the entirety of the Red’s non-league schedule.
In ECAC play, the defending regular season champion Cornell will open up its conference schedule at home against Yale and Brown on Nov. 2 and 3, respectively. The annual Harvard Game at Lynah Rink will take place on Jan.18. The season will conclude with a trip to North Country to face St. Lawrence March 1 and Clarkson March 2.
