UAA: Exciting Things Ahead!

Re: UAA: Exciting Things Ahead!

I've been told that the hockey team will be working out in the new Alaska Airlines Center. Are the hockey offices going to be there too, or still at the Farg?

I get your point, and when we're talking about North Dakota, Minnesota, Wisconsin, etc. it's the big picture. UAA can't compete with those schools facilities wise, but it's more than a locker room. It's the total package. What does UA_ have other than a locker room? The Carlson sucks, Fairbanks sucks and they don't fill their barn any more than we do the Sully.

Guess you'd have to ask that coach and the kid.

I know you're right about that, I heard the same thing from other fans.

I heard it from Matt.

All the student athletes will be working out in the new workout areas in the AAC. The former “work out area “was a joke" ,but all the room they had ( 3 handball courts).The Hockey offices will stay at the Wells Fargo but to bigger offices after a remodel as most of all the other team offices will move to their new home.

A college campus with almost 3 times as many dorms as UAA but have 1/2 the students.
A full blown student center
A pub on campus
More recreation areas and things to do on campus.

I am wondering when the new Rec center is built on the UAA campus if the hockey team will have its own work-out area along with the coaching offices. I am still confused if this new Rec Center is supposed to be attached to a new hockey arena on campus though...

You are 2 building's ahead of me. ........ The new AAC has 2 "work out area's" a 1,500 sq ft. and a 3,500 sq ft area. total of 5,000 sq ft

I hope the "old work out area's in the Wells Fsargo are put back to the hand ball courts that they were before.

When the AAC is built, there will be a pub at UAA as well. Even though there is no hockey in the new arena, I still see this as a benefit to UAA as a whole, even to the hockey team if they are working out there in the new state of the art facilities.

I think you missed the most important part...

I found out that the Patty Center is Fairbanks is getting Blue and Gold theater seating for their basketball facilities this summer. This will upgrade the patty center for spectator comforts to help make the center look more like a college basketball arena versus a high school gym. Supposed to be installed in June.

So, UAF is trying their best to recruit and have facilities for all their sports. I really think Keith Hacket might have something up his sleeve for a new UAA on-campus ice arena. And I think this could be built next door to the new basketball facility connected by bridge..

I am just speculating though! :-)

They’ll only need about 200…… which is about their typical attendance.
They have one item they can’t fix………. Since 1977…..heads up with little Brother
UAA 290……..UA_ 142 Our weak older sister has 169 day until they can even work on the dilemma but I foresee UAA getting 300 before weak big sister gets 150…..
You can’t fix stupid.
