Beware of the hunter. High Point knocked off the Minutemen last week, throwing the Atlantic 10 into further chaos. This week, they travel to Richmond to take on the Spiders.

May be closer than desired but Chemotti will have the team ready..............
You’re right , but I think we played rather workmanlike and just went about doing business. Nothing wrong with that, but I was puzzled why we were not more energetic against a good High Point team.
The final score makes my observation weak, but I stand by it, as you said.
17) UMass
Minutemen are on the verge of a ten-win season (9-3) for coach Greg Cannella, with victories over Rutgers, St. Joe’s, Dartmouth, Albany, and Vermont. Trace Hogan, Aidan Drunsic, and Robbie Granara are leading the way. The Gorillas face Richmond on Saturday.
14) Saint Joseph’s
Hawks (9-3) have won nine of their last ten games, the latest over Hobart. Richie LaCalandra put up eight points and Ben Dutton scored five times. Hawks face High Point next.
13) Richmond
Spiders (9-3) stung High Point 11-6 on Senior Day to improve to (3-0) in the A10. Going 7-for-21 on face-offs wasn’t ideal, but the defense, led by Mitchell Dunham (6 GBs and 5 CTs), limited High Point to 25 shots. A critical game with UMass is next on the calendar. The Atlantic 10 trio of UMass, St. Joe’s, and Richmond are all having stellar seasons. The A10 winner is a nasty draw in the round of 16.
If we were halfway decent with face-offs, this would be a final four caliber team. We still are a dark horse for that too, which tells us just how good of a job Chemotti and Richards have done in building this program.

"dark horse" to win Natty is huge compliment................concerning faceoffs Chenoy did not play against High Point and has seen limited/measured play because of injury............he is our best face off player and hopefully will be more available in coming games. Assistant Coach Jack Kearney works with defense and faceoff specialists and we are giving the attention to faceoffs that is possible............We are number 52 in faceoff winning percentage by team and improvement would certainly help.............

From the article great writeup:
Unsung Hero: Max Merklinger, Sr., Attack
While I still believe Mitchell Dunham (28CT, 32GB) doesn’t get enough love in a defense that boasts Hunter Smith and Jack Pilling and is the 10th-most efficient unit after Week 10, the fact that he was MAAC DPOY at Mount St. Mary’s last year is reason enough to shout out someone else here. Plus, the offense is two spots higher in IL’s adjusted efficiency ratings at No. 8 at the moment. Aidan O’Neil is the headliner at attack and Lucas Littlejohn has endeared himself to college fans with some of the smoothest mitts and quickest releases in the game. But it’s been a joy to watch Max Merklinger come into his own as the reliable third option. He’s got a balanced 19-goal, 13-assist output, can create his own shot and can let it fly with both hands.
