Michigan sophomore defenseman Jon Merrill has been reinstated to the team, effective immediately, after missing the first 22 games this season following a suspension prior to the start of the season.
“Jon’s indefinite suspension has been lifted,” Wolverines coach Red Berenson said in a statement. “He has paid for his poor decision and is back on the team.”
Merrill will dress for the Wolverines Friday night at Yost Ice Arena against visiting Lake Superior State.
