Defending NEWHA champion St. Anselm has been tabbed by the league\u2019s coaches as the preseason favorite to repeat as 2020 champions.<\/p>\n
The 2019-20 season will be the NEWHA’s first as a Division I conference.<\/p>\n
The Hawks, who collected five first-place votes, finished 25-3-1 overall a season ago and went an unblemished 15-0-1 in league play. They posted back-to-back shutouts in the league\u2019s championship tournament to secure their first NEWHA title in February.<\/p>\n
Last season\u2019s second-place finisher from the regular season, Sacred Heart, collected the remaining first-place vote and was picked to finish second.<\/p>\n\n
