Teahupo:

Some are speculating that Choate is going to build a second hockey rink …if true, that would significantly boost its hockey program

This is a fact not a speculation, most of the money has already been raised and they are supposed to break ground next summer. Now not sure if the Hill fire and rebuilt needed there will cause delay or if it is entirely separate but it is has been in the works for a while. The old rink is then supposed to be turned into indoor winter athletic facility (turf).

Having just one rink and 4 teams presents scheduling challenges for practice times for sure, but unlike at some other schools I really don’t know there is a demand for thirds hockey teams. Definitely not on girls’ side as the JV team is no cut already so any girl who wants to play can, there were some cuts on boys’ JV but doubtful that it would have been enough for another team.
