MINNEAPOLIS - University of Minnesota men's hockey head coach Don Lucia announced today that freshman Tommy Vannelli has elected to leave the program.

"After a few weeks of trying to balance academics and athletics, Tommy made the decision this morning that college hockey was not the best route for him at this time," Lucia said. "We accept his decision and will move on as a team."
