Welcome to the Men's Ice Hockey Team
Under the supervision of the Fairfield University Department of Recreation, the Men's Ice Hockey Club competes in the newly formed Empire Collegiate Hockey Association (ECHA) and the national American Collegiate Hockey Association (ACHA).
The Stag's season begins in early September and concludes in March, with a short hiatus for the academic intercession. Aside from 16 MCHC league games, several games and or tournaments may be scheduled each season.
Practices are typically held twice a week at the home facility, The Wonderland of Ice, located approximately 10 minutes from Fairfield's campus in Bridgeport, Conn.
The program has fielded a championship-caliber team for the past several seasons. This past year, The Stags finished 5th in MCHC Playoff standings. The club recorded an 11 - 4 season. This qualified them for the MCHC post-season tournament, losing in the opening round game to Hofstra.
The 2007-2008 club finished with an overall record of 20-9, qualifying for a trip to Rochester, Minnesota to compete in the ACHA National Championships. The Stags finished their championship run with a 6-3 victory over Old Dominion, compiling a 1-3 record at the national event.
