    Six players coming in (Matt Allen, Andranik Armstrong-Kingkade, Ben Meehan, Jackson Sterrett, Brehdan Engum and Henry Welsch). Norm said there’s a chance one additional player may join the incoming group and UAH transfer, Joe Latta, will be eligible to play this season.




    Thanks! Nothing on goriverhawks.com and we don't get the Sun since they let most of the Sports staff go (mr les making a statement)

      Well, this is interesting. It means pushing out a couple of guys that originally (when they first committed) coming in 2020. We now show 10 commits for 2021 (and one of those could be 22). We only have four that will be graduating after this next season though. We do have four players that are 2000 born, meaning they have to come in 2021 at the latest.

      • Are any of the junior leagues going to be up and running? I honestly don't believe we're going to have a season this year, which could make who is coming and going in future years very interesting. There are coaches in the Power 5 conferences in football saying they doubt there will be a season, and I for one think they just need to call it now. There won't be a vaccine while the season is going on, most schools won't allow students to be on campus or in residence halls, etc. If students athletes are supposed to be just that, student athletes, schools should not allow them on campus either, and put themselves at higher risk of exposure just so schools can try to recoup some of their financial losses. And that's for all sports, not just hockey.

          Actually, most schools are allowing students on campus, at least partially. Lowell announced their plans today: https://www.uml.edu/alert/coronavirus/returning/

            If this lasts into October I will be shocked out of my shoes. There is literally no way to insulate from exposure or spread. The Ivys have it right. Not to mention right now many of the student athletes can't get here from their country of origin (and if they have a modicum of intelligence they will stay away if they can get in).

              The Ivies will have some of the students on campus as well. Harvard and Princeton both announced that freshmen and juniors will be on campus in the fall, as well as any student "who need to be on campus to progress academically", then sophomores and seniors will be allowed back in the Spring. The only thing the Ivies did was announce that there will be no sports in the fall.

                That is what the Ivies have right- The logistics of Sports is absurd. Have been listening to it for the last several months. There is no way to control for variables. Same with schools. Basically if you are exposed you need to quarantine for 2 weeks even if tested (tests are not accurate enough at first exposure). You want to calculate how many people are left who haven't been exposed at the end of a couple of weeks. Best case is a bunch and that is if they don't all go to a party. Around here they're having parties like nothing should stop them

                • Congratulations to Lowell Alum Ryan Blair, as he was named the 10th Head Coach ever for the South Carolina Stingrays (ECHL) yesterday. The Stingrays fall into the Capitals farm system.

                    The webpage hasn't been updated more than 10 days. I guess this thread will be a lot more relevant.

                    • America East, in which Lowell participates in all their sports except for hockey, is postponing all fall sports. Currently the hope is to play in the spring of 2021.

                            UMass Lowell lands Matt Kinash, a 6-0, 187-pound forward from Edmonton. Kinash recently decommitted from Brown University. He posted 18-22-40 totals in 35 games for Drayton Valley of the AJHL. Will join UML's incoming freshman class.

                            Matt is rated as a 3.5/5 player on NZ.

                                That area know as the Lord Overpass is being reconstructed. The area that was under the overpass is being filled in and the large intersection
                                will be redesigned. Information on this can be found at https://www.lowellma.gov/771/Lord-Ov...eway-to-Lowell
