the Tri Metro Conference for the 2007-08 season. In the first three years
the program has proven to be very competitive posting a slightly better

has permanent locker room facilities in the new addition to Plymouth Ice
Center located two miles from the Providence campus. The team plays Breck,
Blake, Totino Grace, SPA, Minnehaha, and a number of local A and AA
