Adrian College arena construction to begin

9/28/2006

ADRIAN - Adrian College is set to begin construction next week on a $5.5 million ice arena, where it plans to begin offering NCAA Division III men's and women's hockey programs by winter 2007, the school said.

The arena also will be available to the community for rental and will be named Arrington Ice Arena in honor of Robyn Arrington, Jr., a 1966 graduate, and his brother, Col. Harold Arrington, a 1968 Adrian graduate. The brothers donated $3 million for the project on behalf of their family, the college said.
