COLUMBUS, Ga. -- Nash Hatcher of the Adrian College Men's ACHA Division 1 hockey team has signed a professional hockey contract with the Columbus River Dragons of the Federal Prospects Hockey League (FPHL).
Hatcher, a product of Woodhaven, Michigan, recently concluded his collegiate hockey career after the MD1 Bulldogs fell in the 2025 ACHA Men's Division 1 National Championship game last week in St. Louis.
The fifth-year forward spent five seasons with the Bulldogs, playing in 152 games and producing a total of 54 goals and 56 assists for 110 points. Hatcher was also named to the GLCHL Conference All-Rookie Team in 2020-21 and played a key role in the MD1 Bulldogs' 2021 and 2024 ACHA National Championship victories.
Hatcher, a current member of Adrian College's Master of Arts Sport Management program, is the lone MD1 Bulldog to sign professionally after the completion of the 2024-25 Men's ACHA Division 1 hockey season and will make his professional debut this weekend as the River Dragons get set for a three-game home-stand in Georgia.
