Mercyhurst Lakers Mens Hockey

The Mercyhurst Lakers men's ice hockey team was a National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA) hockey team that represented Mercyhurst University in Erie, Pennsylvania. The team was a Division I hockey team playing out of the Mercyhurst Ice Center located on the school campus. The Mercyhurst Lakers started out as a club sport at the school, moving up to Division III, followed by Division II, and played in Division I in Atlantic Hockey America, formed shortly after the 2023–24 season by the merger of the Lakers' former home, the Atlantic Hockey Association, with College Hockey America. After joining the Metro Atlantic Athletic Conference in 1999, stepping up into Division I, the Lakers won their conference tournament three times, making NCAA tournament appearances in 2001, 2003, and 2005.
