Hobart will join Babson College, Castleton University, University of Massachusetts Boston, New England College, Norwich University, Skidmore College and University of Southern Maine to bring the men&#8217;s division to eight members next season.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;On behalf of the NEHC, I am excited to welcome Hobart to the league next season. Their institution aligns philosophically with our current membership and their commitment to and strength of their men&#8217;s hockey program will make the league stronger,&#8221; said NEHC Commissioner Katie Boldvich. &#8220;I&#8217;d like to thank Hobart Athletic Director, Mike Hanna, and the league Athletic Directors for their leadership and vision in adding the Statesmen to the NEHC.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Hobart brings another storied hockey program to the ranks of the NEHC. Competing since the 1978-79 season the Statesmen have appeared in six NCAA tournaments, advancing to the semifinals twice. They have also won four conference titles, dating back to the 2003-04 season.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Joining the NEHC is an exciting opportunity for Hobart hockey and we are grateful for the invitation,&#8221; said Hobart Director of Athletics Mike Hanna. &#8220;The footprint of the conference meshes well with our alumni base and New England is one of the Colleges&#8217; most important recruiting regions. Joining the NEHC is a strong step forward for Hobart Athletics and our hockey program.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Hobart currently competes in the ECAC West Hockey league where they are 11-2-3 overall. The Statesmen are currently ranked #6\/7 in the D3Hockey and USCHO polls respectively. A league schedule will be finalized in the coming days.
