Messa Rink at Achilles Center

SCHEDULE OF EVENTS & CONTACT INFORMATION

Frank L. Messa '73 Rink at Achilles Center is the home of Union's Division I men's and women's ice hockey teams.

Originally opened in 1975 as Achilles Rink and named in honor of original benefactor Rev. H. Laurence Achilles, Sr., the rink was completely renovated in 2003 and renamed Messa Rink at Achilles Center in honor of Frank L. Messa '73, whose generosity made the renovation possible.

The rink houses the Travis J. Clark '00 Strength Training Facility, a state-of-the-art workout area exclusively for the use of Union student-athletes, in addition to the main sports medicine area and the Garnet Room, which is used to host meetings and special events. There are a number of locker rooms located on two different levels that are used by a number of intercollegiate teams throughout the year. The intramural department uses the ice for a variety of offerings including broomball and ice hockey leagues. The hockey club also practices and plays their games at this facility.
