UMass Lowell hockey is coming off one of the most successful seasons in program history following a historic 2011-12 campaign. Hockey East Coach of the Year Norm Bazin returns 18 players for 2012-13, including its three top scorers. Senior captain Riley Wetmore tallied 39 points last season, while Hockey East Rookie of the Year Scott Wilson scored 38 points and junior sniper Derek Arnold had 34 points.
 
The River Hawks also welcome back Hockey East Second Team All-Star Doug Carr who compiled a 22-10-1 record between the pipes with a .928 save percentage and 2.13 goals against average, ranked 10th and 11th in the nation, respectively.
 
Competing in the state-of-the-art Tsongas Center at UMass Lowell, the River Hawks ranked 17th nationally in attendance and enjoyed their first-ever regular season average of over 5,000 fans per game. The 2012-13 season opener is slated for Oct. 12 in the Tsongas Center against Hockey East foe Vermont—the night will feature a post-game fireworks display, the first of its kind at the Tsongas Center.
 
Tickets can be purchased at the Tsongas Center Box Office, which is open Monday-Friday, 9 a.m. - 5 p.m. during the week. Fans can also purchase tickets online at TsongasCenter.com or by calling 866-722-8780.
