The 2025-26 Princeton men's ice hockey season was celebrated recently as the players, coaches, staff, families, alumni and friends of the program gathered together for the annual Princeton Men's Hockey Banquet.
In addition to presenting the team awards, sharing memories of the season and celebrating a run to the ECAC Championship Game in Lake Placid, this year's banquet was special as it coincided with the announcement of the endowment of the head coaching position in honor of Hobey Baker '1914.
Over 100 members of the Princeton Men's Ice Hockey family attended the banquet, marking one of the largest gatherings in recent memory.
