Bowling Green head hockey coach Dennis Williams will look to build upon an 18-14 first-year campaign as the Falcons 2025-26 schedule boasts some sexy home and away matchups against the Ohio State Buckeyes and Notre Dame Irish.
BGSU opens the 2025 season at home, Slater Ice Arena, against Robert Morris in an exhibition on ice before a two-game road trip to Niagara the following weekend.
If you are feeling itchy in late-November, it's only because the Ivy League sends Princeton to Bowling Green, OH for a two-game series at Slater.
The 2025-26 preseason media poll has the Falcons ranked third in the CCHA behind Minnesota State and St. Thomas.
