College hockey commitments were aplenty on Sunday, as August 1 marked the first day that NCAA programs could begin verbally committing rising high school juniors.

Numerous local players from the 2005 birth year announced their future collegiate plans throughout the day on social media, including four players that skated for Mid Fairfield 15 Only this past season — three of whom will be spending the next two seasons with the NTDP.

Boston College received several big-time commitments as soon as the recruiting window opened, including Mid Fairfield defensemen Aram Minnetian and Drew Fortescue.
