UConn men’s hockey is up to No. 17 in the latest USCHO Poll, the program’s highest ranking ever. The Huskies are coming off a weekend sweep of Union, which improved their record to 4-0-0 — marking their best start since 1975-76.
Last week, UConn debuted in the polls at No. 20 and previously had never risen higher than No. 19 — which is where it ended the 2021-22 season. This weekend, the Huskies will have a ranked, undefeated matchup when No. 11 Ohio State — who is also 4-0-0 on the season — comes to the XL Center for a two-game series on Friday and Saturday.
