Both will have immediate eligibility.<\/p>\n<p>Hayhurst played the last three seasons with Rensselaer, leading the Engineers in points with three goals and 20 assists for 23 points in 29 games last season.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;We watched a lot of film on Jacob and very impressed on what we saw,&#8221; Michigan coach Mel Pearson in a news release. &#8220;He led RPI in scoring last season and expect him to come in and be a top-six forward. We really like his playmaking ability and speed.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Switzer attended BU from 2015 to 2019 and in the 2018-19 season, recorded a rating of plus-1 in 17 games.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Shane comes from Boston University and brings collegiate experience and depth to our blue line,&#8221; Pearson said. &#8220;He is an older player that will provide leadership and we expect him to have a resurgence and have a good year for us.&#8221;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Michigan will have eight new players &#8211; including two graduate transfers &#8211; for the 2019-20 season (photo: Shelley M.
