Re: FundRaising Going Well
I will still push for naming the arena The Cooper-Vivian Arena. There wouldn't be an ice arena without Dr. Sam Cooper and the future of the arena and program are going forward thanks to Dr. Jack Vivian!!! Those two men gave/give their heart and soul to this arena/program!!!!

"BG was relentless. It's like they know that a good first pass on the breakout from a defenseman will almost always result in an odd-man rush against them - but they go in anyway and dare you to make that pass. All three of their goals were just grit and effort. That's a team any fan can be proud to support...they give all they've got."

Indeed. Cooper-Vivian Arena does have a ring to it, and it bridges the delicate need to clearly acknowledge both.Falcon Fanatic wrote:I will still push for naming the arena The Cooper-Vivian Arena.

Re: FundRaising Going Well
How about:
"Jack Vivian Arena at The Sam Cooper Ice Center"
You will have more than just the hockey ice in this facility. It isn't uncommon to have named venues within facilities. And this recognizes two seminal figures in BGSU and BGSU hockey history.
Dr. Cooper was truly known for having had an impact on student sports from varsity to intermural. He is the "Father of BGSU Hockey," as well as a driving force behind getting the build constructed in the first place.
Jack Vivian obviously was the first varsity coach, and really the most vital part of what is making the new building possible.

Re: FundRaising Going Well
Can't forget that it's the BG "Ice" Arena. Scott Hamilton ... Olympic Gold ... largest donor to this point ... make it an even mil. and I'd go with Hamilton Arena.
