  • Since Blazing Into a New Era with the Opening of the Colorado Springs
    Since blazing into a new era with the opening of the Colorado Springs World Arena in January 1998, Tiger Hockey has continued to solidify its position among the nation’s most elite Division I programs. With six league titles, 16 home-ice playoff berths and a dozen NCAA tournament bids tucked away since 1994, Colorado College keeps adding chapter after chapter to its fabled history. CC’s recent string of success, which includes last season’s appearance in the national quarterfinals preceded by trips to the “Frozen Four” in 1996, 1997 and 2005, speaks volumes for the modern-day version of a program that has spanned eight decades. Sure, when Scott Owens took over as head coach in 1999, he inherited a perennial powerhouse. But where does the tale really begin? How has little Colorado College, a private liberal arts and sciences college with an enrollment of less than 2,000 students, maintained such elite status in a sport filled with Division I giants? TWO CONCEPTS COME TO MIND: Tradition. From its pre-World War II roots, to its hosting of the first 10 NCAA Tournaments and co-founding of the WCHA, the school has influenced college hockey's growth from infancy. Commitment. Proving that academic and athletic excellence can co-exist in a small campus environment, CC has relied on vision, hard work and creativity to revive a program that many others nationwide now envy. THE EARLY YEARS Colorado College Hockey got its start in January of 1938, when the Broadmoor Hotel converted its seldom-used indoor riding academy into an ice rink.

    UNIVERSITY OF MINNESOTA JEW§ Bierman Field Athletic Building 516 15th Avenue Southeast Minneapolis. MN 55455 (612) 625-4090 Fax 625-0359 For Immediate Release Mar. 20, 1995 Eleven Golden Gophers Qualify For NCAA Men's Swimming & Diving Championships University of Minnesota head coach Dennis Dale will take 11 swimmers and divers with him to this week's NCAA men's champi­ onships in Indianapolis. Heading the list is diver P.J. Bogart (Jr., Mesa, Ariz.), who earned Big Ten titles in three diving events a month ago. The junior won the national title on the 10-meter platform as a freshman in 1993. Other 1995 Big Ten champs who will be competing for the Gophers include Derek Williams (Jr., Lansdale, Pa.) and Paul Domer (Sr., Eau Claire, Wis.). Williams, who set a new Big Ten record in the 100 fly, has qualified for the national meet in that event as well as the 50 free and the 200 fly. Domer, the conference winner in the 200 breast, will compete in that event as well as the 100 breast at the national meet. Other top contenders for Minnesota include Bernie Zeruhn (Jr., Hamburg, Germany) in the 200 free and Manolis Lentaris (Fr., Rania, Crete, Greece) in the 500 free. In addition to the 11 individual qualifiers, all five Golden Gopher relay teams have qualified for the national championships. A year ago Minnesota finished seventh at the national meet when it was held at the U of M Aquatic Center. The Golden Gophers are currently ranked ninth in the country according to the most recent (3/9/95) national poll.

He will continue to oversee football operations for the sports information office until his retirement. Marc Ryan, the number one assistant under Peterson since 1989, will serve as interim director while a search is conducted by the men's department and an appointment made January 1, 1994. "Bob has been an integral part of this department for nearly two decades," said Men's Director of Athletics Dr. McKinley Boston. "His many contributions during challenging times for this department have been significant and much appreciated. Bob is a real professional and will be missed." Peterson, 62, came to the University of Minnesota in 1975 after 10 years as the sports information director at St. Cloud State University. Prior to that, he taught English and Journalism for nine years at the high school level and also was a sports writer and sports editor. During his 28 years in the sports information profession, Peterson has received more than 20 citations for excellence in the field of publications from the College Sports Information Directors of America. A past president of CoS IDA, he was elected to that organization's Hall of Fame in 1983. While a high school teacher, Peterson received two Newspaper Fund Fellowships from the Wall Street Journal for excellence in teaching.
