History

Originally awarded by Atlantic Hockey in 2018, the Riley Trophy remained in the possession of the conference when it merged with College Hockey America in 2024. [2] Since it was introduced in 2017, the trophy has gone to the champion of the conference tournament which is typically held around late-February through mid-March.
