Brendan Prappas and the Trine Thunder have played two games this fall, both against Adrian. (Photo credit: Trine Athletics).<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

While most NCAA Division III hockey teams have had their seasons put on ice for now because of the COVID-19 pandemic, a handful of teams in the west region have actually gotten onto the ice.<\/span><\/p>\n

Though no official conference games have been played, schools were given the chance to schedule games at their own discretion.<\/span><\/p>\n

Adrian has played four games already and will conclude its abbreviated fall slate this weekend with two games against Lake Superior State. The Bulldogs are 2-2 on the season.<\/span><\/p>\n

Trine played twice, losing a pair of games to Adrian. Concordia (Wisconsin) was supposed to play against Trine and Adrian earlier this month. Those matchups were canceled over COVID-19 concerns.<\/span><\/p>\n

All three west region conferences are expected to make a decision soon on the fate of the 2020-21 season.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The MIAC and WIAC are looking to make decisions in December. The NCHA is close to unveiling its potential plan for a 2021 start to the official season.<\/span><\/p>\n

Meanwhile in the east, hockey won\u2019t be played until January at the earliest. <\/span><\/p>\n

The MASCAC, NESCAC, NEHC and SUNYAC have already canceled their seasons while the UCHC, NE-10 and CCC have yet to make decisions on how things will look this year.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
