THROGGS NECK, N.Y. (Jan. 25, 2013) – The American Collegiate Hockey Association (ACHA) released the third regional ranking (through games on Jan.20) on Friday morning and Maritime has moved up one spot to seventh. The Privateers were ranked eighth in both of the previous rankings earlier this season.
 
        This comes after a weekend where Maritime (16-2, 10-0 MCHC) defeated strong regional opponent Kings Point on Friday night, but saw its 15-game winning streak come to an end on the road on Sunday to the second-ranked team in the region, Farmingdale St. The squad captured 50 votes to land just behind sixth-ranked Nuemann University (43) and ahead of eighth-ranked Pittsburgh-Johnstown (54).
