OMAHA, Neb. - The UNO hockey team comes in 15th and 16th in the latest polls released by USA Today/USA Hockey Magzaine and the website, USCHO.com.
The Mavs had been ranked 14th in both polls released prior to the start of the regular season.
Boston College was the top pick in both polls after a pair of wins in the Ice Breaker Tournament last weekend, including a 6-2 win over North Dakota in the championship game. Notre Dame is ranked second in both polls after a weekend split at defending national champion Minnesota Duluth. Denver comes in third in both even though the Pioneers have yet to play a regular season game. Miami and Michigan are 4-5 in the USA Today poll while their positions are reversed in the USCHO.com poll.
The WCHA is the most represented league in the USA Today poll which ranks the top 15 teams. In addition to the Mavericks and Denver, North Dakota is sixth, Colorado College is eighth, Minnesota Duluth is ninth and Minnesota is 14th. All of those teams are ranked in the USCHO.com top 20 as well as Wisconsin which is 18th.
The Mavericks return to action this weekend at the Brice Alaska Goal Rush. They'll play Alaska Anchorage on Friday, Oct. 14 at 8:05 p.m. CT and then take on Alaska Fairbanks on Saturday at 10:05 p.m. CT. All the action can be heard on 96.1 The Brew and through the IHeartRadio ap and on-line at Mavericks Radio.
