Ice hockey team skates to second place in division

The hockey team clinched home-ice advantage for at least its first playoff game after a solid 4-2 defeat against Plymouth State Tuesday night at the Waterville Valley Ice Arena. The team's 9-2-1 record in the ECAC Northeast Conference is good for 19 points, enough to clinch at least the fourth seed in the upcoming eight-team playoff. This is the first time in over a decade that the Jumbos will host a playoff game.
