The Syracuse University ACHA Men’s hockey team has announced their schedule for the upcoming 2021-2022 season. Syracuse will open their campaign at home with a two game set against Stony Brook University on Friday, October 1st and Saturday, October 2nd. The weekend series against SBU will be the first game action that Syracuse has seen in roughly 18 months after the entirety of the 2020-21 season was cancelled due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
The Orange have 26 games on tap for 2021-22 which will include 20 ESCHL conference games against the University of Delaware, New York University, the University of Rhode Island, Stony Brook University, and newly added Drexel University. Drexel joins the ESCHL from the Eastern Collegiate Hockey Association (ECHA) where they were the regular season and playoff champions in 2019-20. The Dragons will fill the void left by Liberty University; the Flames decided to leave the ESCHL to go independent following the 2019-20 season.
The 2021-22 campaign also includes six non-conference games against three different opponents. ‘Cuse will host West Chester University on November 20th & 21st. They’ll also take on Niagara University in a home-and-home series on January 15th & 16th and the University at Buffalo in a home-and-home series on February 4th & 5th.
Syracuse will welcome back past members of the club when they host URI for Alumni Weekend on November 6th & 7th. The Orange will conclude their regular season when they host Senior Day on Saturday, February 12th against the University of Delaware.
