๐Ÿ’ 2025-26 ACHA PLAYER OF THE YEAR ๐ŸŒŸ

The ACHA is pleased to name Acadia Axewomen forward and assistant captain Jenni Simpson, from Glovertown, Newfoundland and Labrador, the 2025-26 Player of the Year!

This is Jenniโ€™s third time earning the award โ€” a testament to her commitment and dedication to continuously being one of the leagueโ€™s most elite and well-disciplined players.

A deadly offensive force to be reckoned with every night, Jenni tied for the league lead in points while collecting just two penalty minutes in her final season as an Axewomen. She led the team to a second consecutive regular-season championship, followed by a runner-up finish at the 2026 ACHA Championship.

THE HURRICANE ROARS FOUR IN A ROW! ๐Ÿ†๐ŸŒช๏ธ

The Holland College Hurricanes are four-time defending and five all-time Atlantic Collegiate Hockey Association champions!

An early third-period surge and a dramatic last-second save by graduating goaltender Emma Arsenault secured them a 3-2 win over Acadia.

With their fifth championship, they tie UNB for most ACHA titles all-time and double their lead over active programs (five versus Acadiaโ€™s three). Holland finishes back-to-back postseasons ๐ฎ๐ง๐›๐ž๐š๐ญ๐ž๐ง.

Congratulations to all teams on an incredible 2025-26 ACHA season โ€” and a special thank you to the CBU Capers for hosting another great championship.

See you all in 2026-27!

๐Ÿ’ Championship Game Day Alert! ๐Ÿ’

For a fifth consecutive year, it's Acadia and Holland fighting for regional supremacy.

The regular season champions versus the three-time defending champions.
The team that sets the standard each year against the team that delivers when it matters most.
The Bay of Fundy meets the Northumberland Strait.

PREVIEW:
โ€ข Acadia looks to end a three-year championship drought (2022). They've claimed four of the last five regular-season titles, but only one of the last four postseason crowns.
โ€ข Holland is one win away from continuing the longest championship streak in league history and going unbeaten across back-to-back postseasons.
โ€ข In round-robin action between these two teams, Holland got the best of Acadia in an exciting shootout. With a championship now on the line, what will it take to win this one?!

Two late-game goals in just under two minutes send Acadia to the finals!

An outstanding clutch performance by the Axewomen, and a heartbreaker for the CBU Capers.

It's another Acadia v. Holland gold medal game later today at 1pm.

๐Ÿ’ Championship Game Day Alert! ๐Ÿ’

The day to crown another Atlantic Collegiate Hockey Association champion has arrived.

First, we decide who joins Holland in the gold-medal game (1pm), with an early-morning Battle of Nova Scotia semifinal.

PREVIEW:
โ€ข Acadia looks to advance to the finals for a fifth consecutive year. The Axewomen punched their ticket last year with a 4-0 semifinal victory over CBU.
โ€ข The Capers haven't made the finals since winning the league title in Prince Edward Island in 2020. After a winless round robin, they hope to make the third time the charm in front of their fans in their new home.
โ€ข Acadia defeated CBU 5-3 in round-robin action on Friday.
