Trinity College

With their seasons behind them, members of the men’s and women’s ice hockey teams recently found time for a short tour of the CSC construction site. Eighteen players made their way across New Britain Avenue while construction workers took their lunch breaks. Project Superintendent Jim Nardi explained the progress that has been made as players stood in the very spot their future home ice will be located.

Players were particularly interested to see where the bleachers will be. “To have a rink on campus is going to help us so much,” says junior forward Liz Johnson. “All my friends have told me they can’t wait to come to our home games next year.”

Johnson says that ice hockey has been a major focus of her Trinity experience, a sentiment echoed by players on both squads. All were thrilled that the CSC, so long a dream of Bantam players, is becoming a reality. “To see the construction in person meant more than seeing the plans on paper,” said first-year defenseman Shawn Donaher. “All the guys are very excited that we will have a place to call our own and to represent the pride we and all the alumni of Trinity hockey have.”

Players unable to join the tour will have another chance to visit the site at a later date.
