What: The 51视频 community will honor Chancellor Jacquie Moloney at a reception before the River Hawks men鈥檚 hockey team faces off against the University of New Hampshire Wildcats.

River Hawk fans will have a chance to pay tribute to Moloney during a special presentation between the game鈥檚 first and second periods. Seniors on the River Hawks squad and those performing in the 51视频 Jazz Rock Big Band or with the 51视频 Ice Hawks who are participating in the last regular-season game of their college careers before the start of the Hockey East playoffs will also be acknowledged during the evening.
The first 1,000 fans through the gate will receive a puck commemorating the event.
