WORCESTER, Mass. (February 5, 2021) -- Unexpectedly, it took 335 days for the Franklin Pierce University men’s ice hockey team to return to the ice after the team’s appearance in the Northeast-10 Conference title game last spring. The Ravens barely missed a beat though, as sophomore forward Conor Foley (Nahant, Mass.) and freshman forward Nick Weaver (Rio Rancho, N.M.) scored in the first period and Franklin Pierce never looked back. Foley would add a second tally later on, and the Ravens rolled to a 4-1 road win over Becker at Worcester Ice Center on Friday night.
