Fox Chapel hockey, just two years removed from not fielding a team, made the PIHL playoffs last year, and coach Rick Villani has hopes of making it two years in a row.

“We finished in fourth place last year, and I was very proud of what the team accomplished. They impressed me all year long.”

If the Foxes are to make the playoffs, they will have to replace some key players.

“We lost three players to graduation and a couple transferred, but we have a lot of talented players coming back.”

Chief among them are senior forwards Ben Friedland and Jasper Uricchio and senior defenseman Jonny Rice. Friedland is the team captain while Rice and Uricchio are assistant captains.
