The 2026-27 American Collegiate Hockey Association Division I, Division II, and Division III seasons are underway, and a total of 29 players with Pacific Junior Hockey League experience are currently featured on rosters.
The Drury University Division I team leads the way with six players who skated in the PJHL on its roster, followed by the University of Central Oklahoma with three, and San Diego State University with two.
22 of the players with PJHL experience in the ACHA are on Division I teams, while seven of them are on Division II teams. Zack Lagrange, who spent five seasons in the PJHL, has played for both the Drury University Division I and Division III teams this season.
The appearance of these players on ACHA rosters is a further indication of the PJHL’s role in acting as a stepping stone on the development path to the collegiate hockey ranks across North America.
