Great, spent 5 years in Rottin Grotin as we called it in the Navy. Would have been nice to have that back in the 60's

The team hasn't been playing at UConn since...Feb. or something. I know that Pete has written a letter to UConn to reopen the pool for hockey asap. Hopefully Peter will let us know.

Just got word that they are trying to reopen the pool by the end of August. I will post as soon as I am able to schedule a time slot.
