RECRUITING INFORMATION

Syracuse University Men’s Ice Hockey would like to express an interest in your future as a student-athlete.

The team consists of approximately 28-30 junior, prep school, and top-level high school players from across North America and the rest of the world.  Many are recruited, but a portion of the roster is made up of walk-on athletes who are selected in a tryout that takes place early in the Fall semester. Funding for team equipment, apparel, travel accommodations, and game costs is covered by Syracuse University, player dues, and fundraising. 

​

SU Hockey plays approximately 30 games per season - much like an NCAA program. Games are played from late September to mid-February and conclude with a conference playoff tournament. If qualified for, the ACHA National Tournament is typically played in Mid-March. The team practices 3-4 times per week and typically plays 2 games each weekend. All home games and practices are held at the Tennity Ice Pavilion - a modern on-campus facility.
