An Entity of Type : owl:Thing, within Data Space : 134.155.108.49:8890 associated with source dataset(s)

The impetus for the realignment was put in motion in September 2010, when oil and natural gas magnate Terry Pegula and his wife Kim donated $ 88 million to establish a Division I hockey program at Penn State University. This gave the Big Ten Conference, at the time a non-hockey division one conference, six members that had men's ice hockey competing at the D1 level. Six members of a league gives the league champion an automatic bid to the NCAA Men's Division I hockey Championship tournament. The conference members voted to add men's ice hockey as a conference sponsored sport in March 2011. The start date of the hockey was announced for the 2013-14 academic year.

  • The impetus for the realignment was put in motion in September 2010, when oil and natural gas magnate Terry Pegula and his wife Kim donated $ 88 million to establish a Division I hockey program at Penn State University. This gave the Big Ten Conference, at the time a non-hockey division one conference, six members that had men's ice hockey competing at the D1 level. Six members of a league gives the league champion an automatic bid to the NCAA Men's Division I hockey Championship tournament. The conference members voted to add men's ice hockey as a conference sponsored sport in March 2011. The start date of the hockey was announced for the 2013-14 academic year. The result of the establishment of the league led to the folowing changes: * Penn State University started playing division 1 hockey as an independent for the 2012-13 season and joined the Big Ten for the 2013-14 season. * The University of Wisconsin and the University of Minnesota would leave the Western Collegiate Hockey Association. * The University of Michigan, Michigan State University and Ohio State University would leave the Central Collegiate Hockey Association.
