Penn State hockey: More Pegula Ice Arena details released

Board of Trustees Approves Pegula Ice Arena DesignIntercollegiate Athletics
More details about The Pegula Ice Arena were released at Friday’s Board of Trustees meeting. The future home of Penn State Nittany Lions ice hockey will have 6,000 seats, including 1,000 behind the opposition’s net.

The exterior is nothing special, likely the same brick as the Bryce Jordan Center with lots of glass on the north (or east according to the Penn State compass) side. The interior looks good, kind of intimate without being cramped. It should be fun going to games there. Opening is scheduled for Sept. 2013.

This is also a good reminder to Pat Chambers and the men’s basketball team — get respectable by 2013, you have winter sports competition coming!
