Tennessee State Considering Starting First-Ever HBCU Hockey Program
|
Posted By: Kennedy Williams on May 07, 2021 According to a report from the Nashville Post, Tennessee State officials are “looking into starting an NCAA Division I ice hockey program.” From the Nashville Post: The school will reportedly announce soon announce plans to conduct a feasibility study with the goal of determining the viability of starting a hockey program at TSU as well as how much fundraising would need to be done. If officials push on from there, TSU’s would be the first Division I hockey team in the history of the country’s Historically Black Colleges and Universities. The Nashville report also said that there might also be a partnership between TSU and the Nashville Predators announced in the future. The two organizations have teamed up before, most recently in March 2020 for the “$1 million in 1-month” fundraising campaign to benefit merit- and need-based scholarships for TSU students. We look forward to hearing more about this from TSU and seeing this HBCU make history. If you enjoyed this article, Join HBCU CONNECT today for similar content and opportunities via email! |
