The long and storied success of ice hockey at UMass Dartmouth got its start during the 1982-83 season, when the Corsairs captured the program’s first ice hockey championship. Thirty years after winning the ECAC Championship, the Corsair Hall of Fame is inducting the captain of that team, Mark Tallent.  The first championship season is filled with the stuff of legends. The team lost its head coach during the season, finished with only 14 skaters and three goalies at season’s end, yet took the ECAC crown from a filed of 40 teams with a pair of road wins over Wesleyan and Iona. At the center of it all was Mark Tallent, the team’s lone senior and Most Valuable Player.  “Mark was a guy who led quietly in the locker room but very loudly on the ice,” said teammate John Findley, a 1991 Corsair Hall of Fame inductee. “He was a player who could have played at a Division I school but he was overlooked.”  The success of Tallent and his 1982-83 teammates laid the groundwork for the Corsair championship tradition.
