I received a lot of positive feedback on my post last Week – which was great to hear. ‘The Adjustment Phase’ as I call it, happens to most players at every level. As you move up the competitive hockey ladder, the game harder. But it doesn’t have to be all bad news just because you struggle a bit. With struggle comes growth – as long as you have the right mindset and a plan to face the adjustments needed. Enjoy!
Adjusting To A New Age Group Or Level of Play Takes Time. It’s Suppose To Be Hard – Embrace It!
Moving Up An Age Group Or Competitive Level?
Not Playing As Well As You Thought To Start The Year?
Three Ideas To Help You Cope 1) Mindset 2) Adjustments/Improvements 3) Realistic Expectations & Goals

I’ll recap my posts from the past week so you never have to miss out. Just click any of the links below and stay informed.
Sunday’s are usually reserved for our Weekly Review. But, after a busy week, there were only 2 Pipeline posts this week – Monday and Wednesday. So I’m adding our Friday Sifters edition w/ today’s post. Enjoy!
Friday’s Sifters
Little lobs of news and info from around the world of women’s college hockey and beyond
Gustavus Women’s Hockey Tragedy
I’d like to start today’s post by offering my deepest condolences to the families, friends, teammates, coaches, and the greater women’s hockey community affected by the tragic passing of Gustavus Adolphus women’s hockey player Jori Jones. Jones and three of her teammates were involved in a two-car accident last Sunday in western Minnesota. Jones succumbed to her injuries caused in the crash while 3 of her teammates suffered non-life threatening injuries. Jones was coming off a freshman season winning the Division III National Championship.
Friday Sifters
This week has been the calm before the storm.
We are just a few days away from September and the 23-24 college hockey season about to begin. First-year student orientations are in full swing. Freshman are moving in and returning students are just days if not hours from getting settled back on campus.
NCAA coaches are in ‘Full Go Mode’ as they juggle everything that occurs at the beginning of the year. Players return to campus, recruiting activity ramps up, those beginning of the school year meetings etc., and for D-I coaches – the planning of on-ice practices as soon as classes begin. It’ a busy but exciting time.
Here is what’s happening in today’s Sifters edition.
-Coaching moves news to announce.
-D-III Changes to Playing Season & National Championship.
-UNH Receives Alumni Support for New
-IIHF Women’s Division 1A World Championships Conclude.
-In-Season D-I Tournaments Announced
Let’ get to it!
Coaching/Staff News

Here’s what I have this week.
In The NCAA

D-III Changes Coming in 2023-2024
Some big changes are coming to D-III this year.
The hockey season calendar is changing from a number of weeks in the season to a number of days model. Here is what teams can expect:
Hockey has 114 total days to use.
From the beginning of classes to the first Monday in October they may use up to 8 of the 114 days [they don’t have to but they can.]:
Those days can be on or off-ice
During this period they can’t use more than three days in a week
They can’t compete
From the first Monday in October to the second Monday in October:
They can only go “off-ice’
The days count against the 114 total
They have to have a day off
They don’t have to practice at all during that week
From the second Monday in October to NCAA championship selection:
They have to have 5 on-ice days before they can compete
They have to have a day off per week
From Champs selection to five weekdays before final exams for the academic year (provided they weren’t chosen for NCAA championships or some other post-season tournament):
They can only practice if they have not used 114 total days and they did not use 8 days before the first Monday in October (if they used 5 days before the season then they can use 3 days after the season provide they haven’t used 114 days)
Additionally the NCAA Championships Committee approved a ‘predetermined site pilot’ program for the National Championships over a 4-year period. The 2025 and 2027 Championship finals will be held at a predetermined site. The 2024 and 2026 finals will be held at the site of the highest seed eligible to host.
UNH Hockey Programs Receives $4 Million Boost
The Women’s and Men’s hockey programs at the University of New Hampshire recently received a $4 million dollar gift from Anthony DiLorenzo ’87, owner of Key Auto Group. The gift is part of an overall campaign to support upgrades to the Whittemore Center.
The USCHO.com release stated… “The upgraded arena will feature larger, more functional and accessible multi-use locker rooms for both men’s and women’s hockey, an expanded strength and conditioning space, and new offices for coaches and administrative staff. The upgrade will also benefit other UNH teams using the facility including UNH Field Hockey and Paralympic athletes that compete in sled hockey on UNH’s Northeast Passage team.”
