Yes, they made it official yesterday. No conference affiliation yet.
Now Syracuse is the only D1 school that has women's hockey but not men's.
A curiosity - Lindenwood wants to start play in 2022, Augustana isn't starting play until 2023. Is that just because they have infrastructure? Seems like way too little time to set up a full roster and practice.

They've also already been playing at Centene (The STL Blues practice facility) for several years. So yeah, the infrastructure is definitely there. I'm sure it will be more complicated than just hanging up NCAA signage in Centene, but from the outside looking in, there's no reason for it not to be a smooth transition.

Lindenwood has a very good club team already playing in the ACHA that just won the national championship this past season. It was their 4th ACHA championship. Coach Rick Zombo has done a great job of building the program. They already have several pieces on the roster capable of playing at the NCAA level. They have several NCAA teams that have stepped up to schedule them for the 22-23 season.
