There is a palpable buzz surrounding the UPEI Panthers men’s hockey team as they enter the 2024–25 season, and it’s easy to understand why.

Last year, the Panthers were in the midst of a rebuild, and expectations were modest. However, the team defied those expectations, as key veterans rose to stardom and a wave of promising rookies developed into core roster pieces. With the return of those young standouts and some intriguing new additions, the Panthers are primed to continue their upward trajectory.

Seventeen UPEI researchers are included in the latest edition of the Stanford/Elsevier Top 2% of Scientists List, which provides a nuanced picture of scholarly influence, measuring both career-long achievements and single-year impacts. 

The UPEI Panthers are looking forward to a full week of competition at home and away. 

Every week, UPEI Athletics and Recreation recognizes student-athletes for their achievements and contributions to their respective sports. The UPEI Panther Athletes of the Week for September 23–29, 2024, are Kayla Batchilder (women’s field hockey) and Jahmal Boursiquot (men’s soccer).
