The 2008-09 season opener at Cheel Arena promises to be a challenging start to the home campaign for the Clarkson University Hockey team as the Golden Knights host the top-rated Colorado College Tigers in a two-game series to highlight Parents’ Weekend at the University.

Guided by sixth-year head coach George Roll, associate coach Greg Drechsel and assistant coach Jean-Francois Houle, the Green and Gold will play nine of their next 11 games in Potsdam. Clarkson owns a 204-74-27 all-time record at Cheel Arena, including a 16-3-1 mark in 2007-08.

Led by senior co-captains Tyrell Mason (Dawson Creek, BC) and Phil Paquet (Quebec City, QUE), Clarkson is ranked 19th in the country in the latest USCHO.com/CBS College Sports and USA Today/USA Hockey Magazine national Division I polls.
