There's no reliable score feed for college hockey. It's still generally people calling around the rinks when they get to it. Until someone makes a concerted effort to address that, don't exptect it to show up on any TV ticker or per-goal messaging during play. At this point, you should feel fortunate if you can get an end-game score in a semi-timely fashion from your provider.

Oh, I am very thankful for it -- I've signed up with collegesports.com.

My reason for posting that was, I thought I had read a post from someone about receiving messages every 20 minutes telling him that the opposing team had scored again.  But I think it was for football -- wasn't sure if that was available for hockey as well.

I'm just missing Lynah and wishing I could be there... that's all :-)

I get updates from Yahoo! Sports.  I signed up to get updates after every goal and after every period for all ECAC teams, plus Maine because my girlfriend is a Maine fan.  The updates pretty much arrive whenever they want to, though.  In any case, it's still better than collegesports.com, if only because it covers more ECAC teams (i.e., all of them, versus three or four from collegesports.com).

1-800-555-TELL is a free service that is pretty reliable for college hockey scores. They update throughout the game.

The livestats for the Mercyhurst game I believe was working pretty well.  You might want to try that.

Probably depends on your cell company, but I have Cingular and their mywirelesswindow.com has tons of sports, including College Hockey. You can set it up to send you a text message for a given team's games either at the end of every period or just at the end of the game.

If you have wireless web, you can put college hockey as one of "My Leagues", and then surf to it. I did that to check all the other scores around as I was walking home today.

It was pretty up to date - I left Lynah probably 20 minutes after our game and they had ours as a final.

I got the Yahoo updates sent to my phone... I feel like it worked pretty well... hopefully the cast won't get too annoyed with two nights in a row of this...

Thanks for the suggestions!!  I'll definitely try them.
