For the first time ever, UConn women’s hockey is nationally ranked. The Huskies slotted in at No. 10 in the USCHO Poll after finishing the first half of the season 14-4-2. Their first game after the winter break is set for Friday, Jan. 7 at Vermont.
UConn received eight points in the poll, which tied the team with Harvard. The Huskies are one of the two Hockey East programs (along with No. 3 Northeastern) — and one of the three Connecticut programs (No. 2 Quinnipiac and No. 7 Yale) to be ranked.
It is the highest ranking ever achieved by a UConn hockey team.
