The ACHA preseason coaches poll was released yesterday during the 2nd annual ACHA Men’s Division 1 Preseason Show and your Delaware D1 men’s team is ranked #11. With 19 returning players the Blue Hens look to have another strong campaign in the 2014-15 season. With the home opener just two weeks away the excitement is growing in the locker room and across campus: “We have had a good start so far” Senior defenseman Steve Braun said, “We have had a lot of energy at practice and the team is really starting to come together as one unit.” Braun is a four year player for the D1 team and was apart of the National Championship team as a freshman in 2012. Keep a look out for freshman Cole Zucker and Max Freeman to make immediate impacts in the Blue Hen lineup. Senior goaltender Noble Tucker will look to regain the starting job and backstop the Hens back to the National Championship.
