Message: [QUOTE="DblCrossbar, post: 4715257, member: 12251"] The upgrade of the Ice Hockey program to the Hockey East conference is essentially the equivalent of this move to appeal to Fairfield County. Dan Toscano, who donated significant funds to make the new on campus rink a reality lives in Fairfield County and is the UConn Chairman. So there has been some push to appeal to the Gold Coast for sure. The thing is that Sacred Heart and Quinnipiac are also poised to capitalize on investments in hockey and are even closer, but that benefits the state overall with four competitive D1 teams (just not all at the same time apparently ;)).
