Mid-Atlantic Collegiate Hockey Association

The Mid-Atlantic Collegiate Hockey Association (MACH) was a college ice hockey league based in the Southeastern region of the United States. The conference was part of the American Collegiate Hockey Association Division 2 and finished the 2022-2023 season with five teams from colleges and universities based in Delaware, Maryland, New Jersey and Pennsylvania.

Format

Each team plays every team in their division twice throughout the season. Only divisional games are counted towards standings. All five teams, regardless of point total, are eligible to qualify for league playoffs. The 4th and 5th seeds play in a wildcard match, to see who advances to the playoffs. The two winners of the semifinal games meet to determine the league championship. League and non-conference games are taken into consideration to qualify for the ACHA Division II Regional & National Tournaments. At the end of the 2022-2023 season, it was announced that the league would fold due to undisclosed reasons.

Member Clubs

Of the five member schools, four compete at the Division I level of NCAA and one at Division III. Stevenson University joined the conference in 2017 following the launch of its own club men's ice hockey program.[1]

Note: Stevenson has an NCAA Division III hockey team competing in the UCHC
