AMHERST, Mass. - The UMass Hockey team will be hosting a Meet and Greet on Wednesday, October 29 from 6-8 PM at Union Billiards in the lower level of the Campus Center. The event is for UMass students only. This is your chance to have fun and interact with the Mass Attack before their home opener on Friday, October 31 against Providence College!

During the Meet and Greet, students will have an opportunity to utilize the pool tables, hot shot machines, ping-pong tables and televisions with the players. Free food and drinks will be provided to all. Free Schedule Posters and autographs from the team will also be available for attending students.

Following the Meet and Greet, Head Coach Don "Toot" Cahoon will be available for a brief question and answer session. Coach Cahoon will share his thoughts about the team's play so far this year and will offer some insight as to what he expects from his team for the rest of the season.

After a 1-1 tie at No. 4 New Hampshire this past weekend, the Mass Attack finally returns to the Mullins Center for their first home game of the season on Halloween Night against Providence College. Gametime is slated for 7 PM. Prizes will be awarded to students who wear the best costumes to the Mullins Center on Friday.
