Fitchburg State Ice Hockey Ready To Host 2009 IC Credit Union Hockey Shootout

Falcons introduce elite ice hockey fall classic to Fitchburg area

FITCHBURG, Mass. (October 20, 2009) - The Fitchburg State athletic department is set to host a weekend of hockey as it introduces the inaugural 2009 IC Credit Union Hockey Shootout at the newly renovated Wallace Civic Center at Fitchburg State College, Friday November 13th and Saturday November 14th.

This year, Fitchburg State has partnered with local banking provider, IC Federal Credit Union to host one of the most elite pre-season hockey tournaments this fall. The ICFCU has been a local banking provider since 1928 and has been consistently dedicating itself to the Fitchburg community. The ICFCU has become one of the largest credit unions in the state of Massachusetts and is actively looking forward to the fall hockey classic.

Head Coach Dean Fuller, Chris Brecken.

Fitchburg State will kick-off the four-team classic on November 13th, as teams from Assumption College, Worcester State College and Wentworth Institute of Technology battle in the two-day tournament. Fitchburg State looks to retain its pre-season tournament crown after registering a two-game sweep in the UBS Tournament last season. The Falcons registered a 3-1 victory over Salve Regina on day one before completing the two-game sweep with a 1-0 shutout over Worcester State.

Wentworth and Worcester State will open the tournament on Friday with a match starting at 5 p.m. before the Falcons square off against Division II rival, Assumption College at 8 p.m. On Saturday, November 14th, the consolation round will start at 1 p.m., with the championship game slated for 4 p.m. Admission is $5 for adults, $3 for students (Age 12+), and FREE for students with a One Card or under the age of 12.
