SARATOGA SPRINGS — The Skidmore College ice hockey team will join the State University of New York Athletic Conference (SUNYAC) as an associate member beginning in 2025-26.
The 2024-25 season will be Skidmore’s 27th and final as a member of the New England Hockey Conference.
“Skidmore has enjoyed a competitive relationship with many of the SUNYAC hockey schools, and we look forward to strengthening those opportunities and developing a similar relationship with those that we have not yet competed against,” said Skidmore Assistant Vice President for Student Affairs and Athletics Director Gail Cummings-Danson in a statement. “Being located in the same general geographic footprint as the current membership makes for a natural partnership and will preserve our commitment to competing at the highest level of Division III men’s ice hockey.”
In addition to Skidmore, Hobart and William Smith Colleges also joined SUNYAC. Other members include Buffalo State, SUNY Canton, SUNY Cortland, Fredonia State, SUNY Morrisville, Oswego State, Plattsburgh State, and SUNY Potsdam.
Since the start of the 2016-17 season, Skidmore is 12-4-1 (.735) against SUNYAC teams.
