Tournament History
Landing right in the thick of early conference play, the Adirondack Winter Invitational shakes things up with high-stakes, non-conference showdowns on neutral ice—perfect prep for the battles ahead in the second half of the season.
The tournament’s history already packs drama: In 2023, Arizona State claimed the first-ever title, outlasting Cornell in a shootout thriller. Clarkson grabbed third, edging UMass Amherst 5–4 in an overtime nail-biter. One year later, in 2024, UMass Lowell muscled past Providence to hoist the trophy.
