Very generous donation. Could use 100 more fans like their son in the crowd at hockey games trying to get people excited and on their feet.

That's a generous amount of money for the Hockey and Football programs. That should  help out a lot. Add the new athletic building/phase 2 nearing completion, that “should” vault the UND athletic department.
