Despite the fact that they’ve only been on the job for a few months and have yet to register a win for UMass, Greg Carvel and his staff are doing a good job of convincing high profile recruits to commit to the Massachusetts hockey program. This week they picked up a commitment from Jeremy Davidson, a right shot forward who is one of the top under 17 players in the country. In fact he’ll be representing Team USA in the upcoming U17 Five Nations Tournament next week.

Recruit Update ▲ UMass Picks Up A Commitment From Defenseman Marc DelGaizo
The Massachusetts hockey team picked up its second defensive recruit of the week today when Marc DelGaizo, announced his commitment on Twitter this morning.
It appears that DelGaizo will arrive in Amherst in fall of 2018, the same time as Bay State native Jayson Dobay who committed earlier in the week.

Recruit Update ▲ BC High’s Jayson Dobay Commits To UMass
One of the criticisms of the John Micheletto era at UMass was that he did not seem to make much of an effort to lure Bay State recruits to the state’s flagship university. New coach Greg Carvel talked about targeting local talented players when he was hired and just a few months into his regime he has landed his first in-state commitment. Defenseman Jayson Dobay, who this past season played for BC High, announced his commitment on Twitter last night:

Recruit Update ▲ UMass Recruiting Reset
Now that Coach Carvel and his staff have indicated that they’re done assembling their first recruiting class and we know about the current players who will not be returning next year, it’s time to take a fresh look at where the program is from a recruiting standpoint. Recruiting is a fluid situation even in normal situations, so it’s been a challenge to try to keep up with all the new names that have recently committed while following which previous recruits are still committed to the school. I believe all my information is up to date. So first up, let’s take a look at the future Minutemen due in Amherst this fall.

Recruit Update ▲ McElhenie, Boeing Land At UMass
UMass has secured commitments today from a couple of left-shooting centers for this fall. The first came from forward Brett Boeing, who left Michigan Tech after his first semester this past winter. Boeing will be eligible to suit up for the Minutemen for the 2nd semester this coming season and could make his debut at the Mariucci Classic in Minnesota. The second came a few hours later from Luke McElhenie. Both players played most recently in the USHL.

Recruit Update ▲ Goaltender Ryan Wischow Commits To UMass While Henry Dill Exits
Coach Greg Carvel and his staff haven’t wasted much time in putting their fingerprints on the incoming recruiting class as they picked up a commitment from goaltender Ryan Wischow just a day after FTT reported that Jake McLaughlin and Jack Suter had committed to UMass.

Recruit Update ▲ McLaughlin & Suter Commit To UMass
The first recruiting class of UMass coach Greg Carvel is beginning to take shape as the Minutemen have recently gotten commitments from two USHL players. Fargo Force defenseman Jake McLaughlin and Sioux Falls Stampede center Jack Suter are the latest players to sign on with Carvel and his staff after Griff Jeszka became their very first recruit a couple weeks ago.

Up To The Minute ▲ Jeszka Commits; Frozen Fenway & Other Scheduling News
I last posted exactly a month ago. I did not expect to go so long between posts but first I went to Florida to drink a lot of Cigar City Brewing attend a wedding and when I got back I just couldn’t find the time and/or motivation to write. But after some time to recover from the feverish rate of positing as the season ended and the subsequent coaching moves were made, I think I’m finally ready to start spending some time on UMass hockey again.
It’s the offseason so there isn’t a ton to catch up on, especially since the focus of Coach Carvel and his staff has likely been more on getting settled in Amherst than actual hockey stuff. But there were a few major developments since the last post.

Support FTT
Fear The Triangle will always be free. But there is some investment associated with providing first-hand coverage of UMass hockey. Specifically, domain hosting, travel, game streams, and ticket costs all add up. Not to mention the hours spent every day reading and writing about UMass hockey. I'll continue to do this for the foreseeable future even if it runs me into financial ruin (it won't, I think) and my wife divorces me (hopefully just as unlikely).
