The St. Lawrence Saints represent St. Lawrence University in Canton, New York. The Saints play at Appleton Arena and are part of the Eastern College Athletic Conference. In 2001, St. Lawrence participated in the inaugural NCAA Championship tournament. Their current head coach is St. Lawrence alumna Chris Wells, who is in his second season, and has a record of 131 wins, 98 losses, and 29 ties.

History

Beginning as a club team, the women's program has seen great success since entering Division I in 1997. Currently, the team has made five Frozen Four appearances in the eight years since the creation of a Women's NCAA Division I tournament. With the women's appearance in inaugural Frozen Four (2001), St. Lawrence became the first school to have both their men and women's programs in the NCAA Division I ice hockey tournament in the same year.[1] The women's team also recorded the first ever win in the history of the NCAA Women's Frozen Four.[2]

The first women's hockey game was played in 1974, as a club program. The women's team transitioned to a Division III program in 1979, and won three consecutive ECAC Division III tournaments in 1990, 1991, and 1992.[3]

Following the 2007-08 season, Head Coach Paul Flanagan left St. Lawrence to a position with Syracuse University. Flanagan was the women's program's all-time winningest coach with a nine-season record of 230–83–24. Then Men's Associate Head Coach, Chris Wells was appointed to replace him[4] and in his first season coached the team to a berth in the national championship tournament with a record of 24–11–3.
