Cashman Announces Teams Playing in 35th Ledyard Classic

HANOVER, N.H. – On Tuesday, the Koenig Family Head Coach of Men's Hockey Reid Cashman announced Alaska-Anchorage, Northeastern, and Providence will make their way to Thompson Arena for the 35^th annual Ledyard Classic.

The Ledyard Classic is one of the longest standing non-conference Division 1 hockey tournaments and is proudly presented by Ledyard National Bank. This year, the tournament is set to take place on Saturday, December 28 and Sunday, December 29.

"We are excited to host Providence, Northeastern and Alaska-Anchorage in the Ledyard Classic this year," Cashman said. "I am excited for our fans to watch the western based Alaska along with two of the top programs in Hockey East. It sets up for a tournament that will both challenge our team as well as fill Thompson with two days of great hockey."

While Alaska will make their way to Hanover for the first time, both Northeastern and Providence are no stranger to the Ledyard Classic. Northeastern will make its first appearance in a decade, last playing in the tournament in 2013. The Friars were also in the tournament in 2013, but have made two appearances since, most recently in 2022, winning the tournament championship with a 6-1 victory over Merrimack.

The ECAC Hockey schedule is available now with the remaining non conference schedule set to be announced in the coming weeks.

Tickets for the 35th annual Ledyard Classic will be made available at a later date. Season ticket deposits for the upcoming 2024-25 season are already available on DartmouthSports.com.
