Erie, Pa. - Improvements to the Mercyhurst Ice Center have been completed. The College paid $175,000 to a Minnesota company for new dasher boards, glass, protective netting, player benches, and penalty boxes.

The facelift was the first in those areas since the Ice Center opened its doors in December of 1991. Work began on Tuesday, May 29th. New 8-foot panes of glass surround three sides of the ice while new 4-foot panes are located on the players' benches side.
