\nSalve Regina vs. Utica<\/strong>
\nSalve Regina has a tough draw on Friday night. No other easy way to say it. The Seahawks are just 4-7-1, would love to have a few games back, and now have to face the No. 8 team in the country … on the road.
\nUtica indeed will host Salve on Friday night, and the home team is streaking. The Pioneers (9-2) have won four straight, including a win over another ECAC Northeast team, Nichols, on Dec. 8 (4-1). It’s tough to think they won’t get another win over this conference right here. Utica is 7-1, after all, at home, and should be greeted by a packed house this time around, as the Pioneers play for the first time in a little less than a month. Utica 6-3<\/strong>
\nSaturday, Jan. 5<\/strong>
\nWentworth vs. Massachusetts-Boston<\/strong>
\nThe Codfish Bowl in Boston features a dandy of a Saturday matinee, as the Beacons (7-2-1) take on the enigmatic Leopards. Wentworth, at 6-5-1, has puzzled at times, but here’s thinking coach R.J. Tolan has the troops focused for the stretch run. A big win over the Beacons could go a long way toward building some confidence with the heart of ECAC Northeast play still in front of the Leopards. Wentworth 2-1<\/strong>
\nSunday, Jan. 6<\/strong>
\nBecker vs. Southern New Hampshire<\/strong>
\nThe St. Michael’s Tournament offers the Hawks a decent shot to gain some momentum. On Sunday, they draw the struggling Penmen (2-7-2), a team that has allowed 17 goals in its last three games. Becker has won its last two by a combined 6-1 count, and if the defense keeps up that mojo, everything should be fine here. Becker 5-1<\/strong>
\nLast week: 1-2; Overall: 16-9-1.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
