A pair of losses to Providence College in the Hockey East quarterfinals dropped the University of New Hampshire men's ice hockey team in at least one national poll.
The Wildcats (19-11-7) dropped from seventh to 10th in the USCHO.com poll, while they are also expected to slip in the USA Today/USA Hockey Magazine Men's Poll.
The Friars won the best-of-three series, 2-1, to advance to Friday's Hockey East semifinals at TD Garden.
