UNH Close To Series With Colgate, Lehigh

Post by UNHWildCats »

From an article talking about the soon to be over yearly game between New Hampshire and Dartmouth.
In the meantime, to fill openings in the schedule, UNH has turned to the Patriot League and according to Scarano the school is close to working something out with Colgate and Lehigh.

Will be great playing two good teams each year.

I don't know if it will be two games with each over the next four years or if they are scheduling both each season. I would guess it would be a home and home with one and then a home and home with the other.

Scheduling both each season would mean New Hampshire wouldn't have more then 5 home games each season, where as now they play 5 home in years they travel to Dartmouth and 6 when they host Dartmouth.

Dartmouth is way down right now.

It is their thinking that it would be better for the program to play some more winable games for a couple years until they get things turned around and then start back up with UNH.

UNH_Alum_In_CT would add that they had no problem with the games when they were kicking our a$$.
