KALAMAZOO, Mich. -- The Western Michigan hockey team jumped two spots to No. 16 in the most recent US College Hockey Online Poll on Monday afternoon.
The Broncos (2-0-0) were 19th last week's poll and were on a bye week over the weekend. The new poll also officially pits WMU against the new No. 1 team in the nation, the University of Michigan, in a home-and-home series this weekend. Western Michigan travels to Ann Arbor to take on the Wolverines on Friday at 7:30 p.m. before hosting UM on Saturday at 7 p.m. Tickets for the home game are very limited.
