2022 Schedule
McConvey put together a monster 2021 season a year ago finishing with a team-high 37 goals and 53 points. He was an All-America East and All-New England first team selection and comes into 2022 with at least one point in every career game.
Burke set single-season program records for faceoffs won (240), faceoff win percentage (.698) and ground balls (125) and was named the New England Player of the Year in 2021. He was also named to the America East All-Conference First Team, All-Rookie Team and All-Academic Team – the first player to do that in program history.
Vermont begins the season on Sunday, Feb. 6 at Duke. Faceoff against the Blue Devils is set for 1 p.m.
