HAMBURG, N.Y. – Hilbert College Athletics is excited to announce the release of the 2025-26 Women's Ice Hockey Schedule. First year Head Coach, Brian Becker, will lead the Hawks through the program's first season competing in the United Collegiate Hockey Conference (UCHC).

The 27-game campaign kicks off on the road with an exhibition contest against Buff State (October 22nd), before the Hawks return to Hamburg to take on Keene State (October 31st and November 1st) and Niagara University Club (Exhibition on November 6th) ahead of the team's first two UCHC weekend series'.

The first conference games in program history are set for November 14th and 15th on the road against Utica, with the following weekend marking the first home league games for the Hawks against Albertus Magnus at the Nike Base.

Hilbert will follow these first four UCHC matchups with nine consecutive nonconference contests, bookended by home doubleheaders against Buff State (December 5th and 6th) and Hood College (January 16th and 17th).  The team will make trips to take on MCLA (December 12th and 13th), Neumann University (January 2nd and 3rd), and Buff State (January 9th) in this span to prepare for five-straight weekends of UCHC action to end the regular season.

January sees the Hawks host Elmira College (23rd and 24th) and travel to Rye, NY for the first two meetings with Manhattanville (30th and 31st) in program history, before Hilbert finishes its campaign with February series' against Chatham (away on the 6th, home on the 7th), Nazareth (home on 13th and 14th), and St. John Fisher (away on 20th and 21st).

Hilbert will be working to earn a spot in the UCHC postseason which begins on Wednesday February 25th, with the first round winners moving on to play in the semifinals on Saturday February 28th, for the right to play in the Saturday March 7th UCHC Final.
