I’m sure the players would love a new rink where they don’t have to walk down a flight of stairs to get from their locker room to the ice.

 

 

They are not playing there at the moment.

Looks like their women’s team.

Wonder if the men also have stairs to their locker room.

It would appear so. The article said it damaged the GCU Locker RoomS upstairs. Also this FB post from when they were built look like both Men and Womens are upstairs through that door and separated by a hallway inside that door: https://www.facebook.com/share/178ovZYPHZ/

The UAA coach was saying in a pregame interview that Maryville will be playing a hybrid season next year, before going D1 in 2027 or 2028 🤔

UAA will be playing/working with Maryville the next two years.

UAA beat Maryville 4-0

If he really wants this to be a reality, I’d start at FGCU they just need funding every thing else is in place. UCF, USF, and Tampa would be the next three after FGCU. Those three tend to be the better hockey teams.
