The full press release is on the new hockey page on the official Penn State athletics website.
UNIVERSITY PARK, Pa. - Longtime Penn State Athletics and University Development employee Joe Battista has assumed a pivotal role with Penn State as the Associate Athletic Director for Ice Arena Operations and the Director of the Ice Arena and Hockey Campaign. Battista was instrumental in facilitating the largest gift in the University's history, an $88 million donation for the planned ice facility and Division I men's ice hockey team, which came through the generosity of Terry and Kim Pegula and was announced last week.
Until December of 2012, Battista will report to both University Development and Intercollegiate Athletics. After that date, he will report solely to Intercollegiate Athletics as he continues as the Associate Athletic Director for Ice Arena Operations. Battista will assume his new role on September 27.
