Unleash the Kraken! ...Or, you know, just the 2010-2011 schedule.

Warm up the hot chocolate and get a mouthguard that fits -- DVCHC Women's hockey is less than three weeks away from its season opener. 

This morning the league made public its 2010-2011 schedule, the largest in its nine years of history!  Fourteen universities in two divisions will compete from October to February in 94, action-packed games.

Over 225 female athletes will call the DVCHC home in 2010-2011 as the league now spans six states and the District of Columbia.  Fans can catch college hockey in cities like New York and Philadelphia, college towns like Charlottesville and Slippery Rock, or even follow games LIVE online.


Get ready for DVCHC games starting October 1st

The league's 9th season will begin in grande style on NHL ice.  As guests of the Philadelphia Flyers, four area rivals -- Drexel, Villanova, UPENN and Delaware -- will hit Wachovia Center ice for an hour long, season kick-off.  The two scrimmages take place October 1st, following the Flyers own in-state rivalry vs. Sabres.

"Our athletes will be the first, non-professional players on that ice this season," says league President Bryan Benenati.  "It's a special honor, a great experience for the players and we couldn't imagine a more thrilling way to start the season."

From that first day on, fans will have months of college rivalry to look forward to -- but why wait?  Take a look now and fill out your datebook, you won't want to miss this year's action!
