This weekend is the transition between nonconference play and league games.  Neumann has already finished its out of league schedule, while Elmira, Hobart, and Utica wrap things up this weekend.<\/span>
\nThree key league games this week will set the tone for the race to the end.  Neumann is at Manhattanville for a pair of games and Elmira hits the road to Utica.<\/span>
\nLast Week:  7-3       <\/span>
\nOverall:  42-15 (.737)<\/span>

\nNeumann<\/strong> at Manhattanville — Manhattanville beat the Knights at Neumann in November but hasn’t taken two games from them since 2006.<\/span>
\nElmira at Utica<\/strong> — Elmira won the first meeting at The Aud between these two teams in November.  If Utica can keep its wits about it and not get drawn into a penalty fest, home cooking should help them get over the hump.<\/span>
\nSaturday, January 21<\/span><\/span>
\nNeumann at Manhattanville<\/strong> – “We know that Neumann has some highly-skilled players and always are a physical team,” said Manhattanville coach Eric Lang.  “It should be exciting.  We are playing really well at home and the guys can’t wait to get back to league play.”<\/span>
\nCortland at Elmira<\/strong> – Elmira tries to stay above .500 nonconference as it finishes off the schedule.<\/span>
\nPotsdam at Hobart<\/strong> – Hobart celebrates alumni weekend with Potsdam, which is smarting after a solid thumping at Manhattanville last weekend<\/span>
\nAmherst at Utica<\/strong> – The Pioneers can solidify a very strong nonconference record for Pool C with a win over Amherst.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
