Lions Win First WCHC Championship

The LMU Lions ran away with the tier 1 division, securing their first WCHC Championship. Previously playing in two championship games without the victory, the Lions ran through the Covid return season to a 6-0 league record. With the playoffs cancelled, the LMU Lions secured the championship.

The Lions bested LBSU, UCSB and CSUF in all their league games ending the season 6-0-0, with 12 points. UCSB ended the season in second place with a 3-3-0 record, with LBSU at 2-4-0 and CSUF at 1-5-0.

In tier two, Chapman and UCI tied with 4-2 records to split the tier 2 championship. CSUB finished 3-3, with first year team Cal Lutheran finishing with a 1-5 record. Both Chapman and UCI will have the opportunity to move up to Tier 1 next season.

Previous 4 time champion CSUN and tier 2 team USD were unable to compete this year, but we expect them back next season as CSUN looks to get back to the championship for the 6th time in seven years.

Congratulations to the LMU Lions, and good luck at the ACHA West Regionals representing the WCHC!
