Union athletics director Jim McLaughlin has been added to the NCAA Division I Men's Ice Hockey Committee, USCHO.com reported Tuesday.

McLaughlin will be ECAC Hockey's representative on the committee, which has one seat for each of the six hockey-playing conferences. He will serve the final two years of the four-year term that former RPI athletic director Jim Knowlton vacated when he departed for the same role at Air Force in January.

In addition to McLaughlin, the committee includes New Hampshire deputy athletic director Steve Metcalf, North Dakota athletic director Brian Faison, Minnesota senior associate athletic director Tom McGinnis, Army head coach Brian Riley, and Michigan Tech head coach Mel Pearson.
