#11 Lowell River Hawks 12-4-4 (7-2-3) Hockey East 1st
vs
Massachusetts Minutemen 7-10-4 (2-5-4) Hockey East T-7th
The Massachusetts hockey team hasn’t won a league game since their sweep of UConn in the first week of November, going 0-3-3 in that time. Their return to Hockey East play in the new year got off to a very rough start last Friday when they were blown out by the Boston University Terriers 7-2. They’ll look to get back on track in conference this weekend, but it won’t be easy as they’ll have to face the 1st place Lowell River Hawks in a home and home series starting Friday in Amherst.
