BOSTON – Shawn McEachern, head coach of Suffolk men's hockey, has announced 15 new members have joined the Rams' ranks for the 2023-24 campaign. The group, one of the largest recruiting classes in recent history, features 14 true freshmen and one sophomore transfer.  

"We are excited about our team this season," McEachern said. "We will be young with 14 in our freshmen class, but we like the mix of players with our returners and look forward to the season."
