The five-time national champion Terriers enter their 90th season with 39th-year head coach Jack Parker at the helm. Senior Chris Connolly will serve as team captain of a squad that returns its top seven scorers from a year ago in addition to standout senior goaltender Kieran Millan.
There are high hopes for the 2011-12 Terriers after they reached the Women’s Frozen Four championship game in just their sixth year as a varsity program. The team earned a program-best 27 victories in the 2010-11 campaign and returns four Hockey East All-Stars to this year’s roster.
The 2011 America East champion men’s basketball team and the 2011 America East runner-up women’s team will open their seasons with a home doubleheader on Nov. 11. Both squads return four starters for the 2011-12 season. Click here for season ticket information.
