What a Year It's Been

Last Saturday - September 17th - marked the first anniversary of the day that has changed the landscape of college hockey.

It has been full speed ahead for Penn State hockey since the day that Kim and Terry Pegula formalized the $88 million donation that has funded the men's and women's hockey programs and the soon-to-be-built Pegula Ice Arena.

No one has been running at a higher speed than Joe Battista. Come to think of it, JoeBa only has one speed. Somehow, I was able to get Joe to sit still (more or less) for a lengthy interview in which he looks back the past year, at what lies ahead and some memories of his more than twenty years of involvement with the Icers.

In this first segment, Joe talks about the impact of the Pegula gift on the college hockey landscape.
