Men’s ice hockey team to play at Frozen Fenway, media report

The Bangor Daily News, Portland Press Herald, WVII (Channel 7), Boston.com and The Citizen of New Hampshire reported the University of Maine men’s ice hockey team will compete in the Frozen Fenway series at the home ballpark of the Boston Red Sox. Hockey East announced four pairings, including the Jan. 14 match-up between the Black Bears and the University of Connecticut Huskies, the BDN reported. “It gives the student-athletes an opportunity to play outside at Fenway Park which is something everybody dreams about when they’re playing hockey out on the pond,” Will Biberstein, UMaine’s associate athletic director for internal operations, told the BDN. “And it is a unique experience for the fans. They get to watch a great college hockey game outside at a historical baseball park.”
