With the 2017-18 New England Prep School Ice Hockey Association regular season ending Saturday, the fields are now set for the three tournaments that will begin Wednesday afternoon.
The Stuart/Corkery Elite 8 Tournament field is made up of the top eight teams in the rankings. The next eight large schools are then slotted into the Martin/Earl Large School Tournament. The Piatelli/Simmons Small School Tournament is similarly comprised of the top eight small schools that didn’t make the Elite 8.
The quarterfinals and semifinals will be at the rink of the higher seeded team unless the distance between schools exceeds three hours. The quarterfinals are Wednesday, February 28 and semifinals will be Saturday, March 3. The finals will be held at Saint Anselm College on Sunday, March 4.
