ECAC West Honors
Sophomore goaltender Sal Magliocco ’17 was named the ECAC West Conference’s Goaltender of the Week. Magliocco made 31 saves in Elmira’s 1-1 overtime tie against Manhattanville College. For Magliocco, Saturday’s game was his first appearance in net since February 1, 2014 when Elmira faced Utica College.
Rematch Time
Tonight’s game is a rematch of last year’s ECAC West Conference Tournament Championship game. Elmira won that tournament final, 5-2. Elmira has won 10 ECAC West Tournament titles, and have gone 4-5 in tournament final rematch games. In those nine contests, Elmira has outscored their opponents, 37-34. The last time Elmira played in a rematch of a conference final, the Soaring Eagles defeated Neumann University 4-2 in the 2011-12 season.
Coach Aaron Saul ’98
Now in his sixth season at the helm of the Elmira College men’s ice hockey program, Coach Saul is sitting on 96 career wins, 77 of which have occurred during his tenure with the Soaring Eagles. Coach Saul is also one of just six coaches in EC program history, and one of just three coaches with multiple ECAC West Conference Tournament titles.
Last Time Out
Elmira picked up a loss and tie in the opening weekend of the 201415 season, both games going to overtime. After skating away with a 3-2 overtime loss to Neumann University, the Soaring Eagles went out and picked up a 1-1 overtime tie against Manhattanville College.
