Following the most successful season in Penn State history, Gadowsky once again led his Nittany Lions to the NCAA Tournament in 2017-18 . Penn State was able to take the short drive down to Allentown, Pennsylvania, as they served as host for the Midwest Regional . However, once again the Nittany Lions’ season was cut short at the hands of the Denver Pioneers, 5-1, in the NCAA Midwest Regional semifinal. Earlier during the 2017-18 season, Gadowsky secured his 100th career victory at Penn State, which in turn, was the 100th victory for the program, a 5-1 victory over Minnesota on February 23, 2018 . That victory was the start of the first-ever sweep of the Golden Gophers by the Nittany Lions, which secured home-ice for Penn State in the Big Ten Tournament Quarterfinals the following weekend, the first year the conference tournament was held at campus sites . Penn State went on to sweep Minnesota in two games, clinching the series and its fourth B1G Semifinal appearance in five years. In 2017-18, Gadowsky also saw junior Andrew Sturtz become just the second member of the 100-point club at Penn State as well as becoming the all-time leading goal scorer in program history . Sturtz then graduated early and signed an NHL deal with the Ottawa Senators . Gadowsky also coached Trevor Hamilton to a Big Ten Defensive Player of the Year award, the first major conference honor awarded to a Nittany Lion . Hamilton also joined Casey Bailey and Vince Pedrie as the only First-Team All-Conference members in program history . In 2016-17, Gadowsky led Penn State to its most successful season ever, compiling a record of 25-12-2 . Penn State won the 2017 Big Ten Tournament and earned its first-ever NCAA Tournament appearance, falling one game shy of the Frozen Four . The Nittany Lions defeated Union 10-3, tying the record for most goals in a team’s tournament debut, before bowing out to eventual national champion Denver, 6-3, in the Midwest Regional final.

NITTANY LION HOCKEY HISTORY
HOCKEY VALLEY TIMELINE EARLY YEARS LATE 1800s-EARLY 1900s Many of Penn State’s 300 students play pickup hockey on flooded outdoor rinks. 1906-09 Students primarily from the Pittsburgh area organize a hockey team with the intent to seek official approval for an intercollegiate varsity team by the University’s Athletic Association, which oversaw all Penn State sports. DECEMBER 1909 On Christmas night, the first Penn State hockey team, led by captain Herb Baetz, plays its first-ever intercollegiate game against Carnegie Tech at the Duquesne Gardens in Pittsburgh. Less than a week later, Penn State travels to the Duquesne Gardens once more, and falls to Pittsburgh, 2-1. JANUARY 21, 1910 University’s Athletic Association rejects an official bid to sponsor ice hockey as an official varsity sport. Penn State students fight to elevate the program for the next two decades. WINTER 1938 Eight members of the Sigma Phi fraternity form an independent hockey team.
The team competes in 11 games during the season and compiled a 3-8-0 record.
THE FIRST VARSITY ERA MARCH-MAY 1940 Hockey and skiing are put before the students at the All-College Elections. Two months later, hockey is voted as an official varsity sport as the Athletic Association approved the measure by a 651-35 majority vote. DECEMBER 6, 1940 Penn State plays its first game as a varsity sport at the Shaffer Ice Palace in Johnstown, Pennsylvania. The Nittany Lions defeat Carnegie Tech, 3-1, with John Dufford scoring the first goal in Penn State varsity history. After the first season, the University’s Athletic Advisory Board granted hockey full status with full financial support. Up until that time, the team was able to make its own schedule and handle its own finances. The team uses Rec Hall as its practice facility as several attempts for an outdoor rink throughout the years is unsuccessful. 1940-44 SEASONS Although there is on-ice success, the United States’ involvement in World War II, combined with the lack of availability of ice on campus,
1938-39 SEASON Prior to the start of the 1938-39 campaign, Dr. Carl P. Schott, Dean of the School of Physical Education and Athletics, approves appropriations of $100 for the team. Dr. Arthur F. Davis, who also coached the first four seasons of varsity hockey at Penn State, is named the team’s head coach. In the beginning of the season, the team practices indoors at the Armory building or outside on the pond at Whipple Dam, and plays three games. 1939-40 SEASON Penn State joins the Pennsylvania Intercollegiate League with the University of Pennsylvania, Hershey Jr. Cubs, Lehigh and Lafayette.
has a devastating effect on the viability of Penn State Hockey.

With many teams dropping the sport, Penn State only plays four games during the 194243 season, including just two collegiate contests.

Ravaged by the war, Coach Davis and Penn State prepared for the 1943-44 season with only three members from the previous year’s squad after losing most of its members to military and civilian enrollment. With the effects of the war being felt throughout the University, the Athletic Association announces that the suspensions of six sports as a war-time economy measure: hockey, cross country, swimming, gymnastics, tennis and golf. 1946-47 SEASON Following the end of World War II, the team returns for one final season. James O’Hora, a new addition to the football coaching staff, is selected to lead Penn State for the 194647 season. The Nittany Lions are scheduled to play seven games, but four contests are eventually cancelled due to warm weather. Following the season, the Athletic Association drops hockey once more, citing limited facilities.

WELCOME TO HOCKEY VALLEY
THE PEGULA FAMILY
GOPSUSPORTS.COM
THE PEGULAS
On Sept. 17, 2010, Penn State graduate, Terry Pegula, and his wife, Kim, donated $88 million to his alma mater—the largest private gift in the history of the school—to fund a stateof-the-art, multi-purpose arena and to help elevate the University’s men’s hockey program to the NCAA Division I level. In April 2012, the Pegulas announced they would increase their donation to the Nittany Lion hockey program to $102 million. Thanks to their generosity, Penn State added both men’s and women’s varsity hockey, with both teams beginning play at Pegula Ice Arena in 2013-14. The building includes two ice sheets and serves as the only major ice facility within an 80-mile radius of State College. In addition to providing hockey and figure skating opportunities for the entire central Pennsylvania region, it is also used for a broad range of campus and community activities. A native of Rochester, New York, Kim Pegula is a 1991 graduate of Houghton College with a degree in communications and was involved with East Resources since 1991. In 2011, Kim donated $12 million to her alma mater to support the construction of new athletic facility, the Kerr-Pegula Sports Complex. Together, the Pegulas have expanded their interests in the sports field by acquiring Atlanta-based France AllPro Athlete Management, a high-profile NFL player agent firm headed by Todd France, in December 2011. The Pegulas also own Impact Sports Performance, an elite athletic training facility in Boca Raton, Florida. Beyond the sports world, Terry and Kim also founded Black River Entertainment, a country music label based in Nashville, Tennessee.
Terry and Kim currently reside in Boca Raton, Florida, and have five children: Michael, Laura, Jessica, Kelly, and Matthew.

EAST RESOURCES
In 1983, 10 years after he graduated from Penn State, Terry Pegula borrowed $7,500 from family and friends to establish East Resources Inc., an independent oil and gas exploration and development company. Over the next 27 years, he built it into one of the largest privately held companies in the United States. In July 2010, Royal Dutch Shell purchased the assets of East Resources Inc. for $4.7 billion. That sale allowed the Pegulas to make their first foray into the hockey world with their transformational gift to Penn State.

BUFFALO SABRES
Back in 1983, Terry Pegula told his business partner, Robert H. Long Jr., “If I ever have more than two nickels to my name, I’m going to buy the Buffalo Sabres one day.” Almost 30 years later, Pegula’s dream came to fruition. On Feb. 22, 2011, Pegula became the fourth owner in Buffalo Sabres franchise history. The day Pegula was introduced as owner, the Sabres were 27-25-6 and sat in ninth place in the Eastern Conference—five points out of a playoff spot. Pegula’s purchase not only reenergized the fan base, but the players as well. With Pegula now at the helm, the Sabres went on a 16-4-4 run over the final 24 games of the season to finish seventh in the East. This included a 9-1-2 record at home, with every remaining home game selling out. The momentum of the new era would stretch well into the offseason as the home of the Sabres—renamed First Niagara Center

NITTANY LION HOCKEY HISTORY
in August 2011—began a multi-million dollar facelift. The renovations, which were completed in time for the 2011-12 season, included a new, state-of-the-art locker room with updated training and rehabilitation areas, player lounge and coaching offices. Along with the locker room transformation, First Niagara Center underwent several other upgrades with a focus on providing a first-rate environment for players and fans quickly earned Buffalo the label of ‘Hockey Heaven.’ In 2012, Pegula looked to make an even bigger impact on the City of Buffalo, using hockey as a catalyst. On Aug. 29, it was announced that the city had selected Pegula and his development team to develop and construct HARBORcenter, a $172 million multipurpose facility that sits directly across from First Niagara Center in the city’s Canalside District. HARBORcenter is anchored by two new NHLsize ice rinks that are open for community use and a 200-room, full-service Marriott hotel. In addition to the ice rinks and hotel, there’s an upscale, hockey-themed sports bar and restaurant, additional retail space and a parking structure. HARBORcenter is now home to Canisius College hockey and helped host multiple international tournaments including the 2015 IIHF U-18 Women’s Championship. It is expected to draw more than 500,000 people to downtown Buffalo annually and, coupled with First Niagara Center, will provide a premier destination for hockey fans, right in the heart of ‘Hockey Heaven.’
BUFFALO BILLS
On Oct. 11, 2014, exactly a year after Pegula Ice Arena debuts, the Pegulas purchased the NFL’s Buffalo Bills for $1.4 billion, saving the franchise from relocating.

Hovering over the opposing goalie during the first and third periods the 1,000 seat section is built as steep as possible per building code and has sold out in just minutes since the building opened in 2013. Prior to the 2017-18 season the Roar Zone sold out its ticket allotment in just 2 minutes and 12 seconds, a new record. Known around the country for its raucous cheers and creative signage, the Roar Zone has unveiled large Tifos at one game per year in each of the past four seasons.

PENN STATE UNIVERSITY OLD MAIN
the proceeds supported colleges that agreed to include engineering, science and the liberal arts as well as agriculture in their course of studies. In 1863, the Pennsylvania legislature designated Penn State the Commonwealth’s sole land-grant institution. The lawmakers in effect bestowed on the privately incorporated college a public character. In return for state support, the institution assumed obligations of teaching, research and service that are normally associated with publicly owned landgrant universities in other states.
@PennStateMHKY

THE MISSION Penn State’s historic mission of teaching, research, and public service — launched under the most modest of circumstances more than 150 years ago — now reaches into virtually all parts of Pennsylvania. Consider, for example, that the University now has 24 campuses across the Commonwealth, putting a Penn State education within practical reach of nearly every Pennsylvanian. In fact, more than 70 percent of Penn State’s undergraduates are Pennsylvania residents. Penn State is Pennsylvania’s largest nongovernmental employer and has employees and expenditures in every one of its 67 counties. The University generates a total economic impact across the Commonwealth that surpasses $17 billion annually. Part of that impact is derived from Penn State’s research program, which brought more than $534 million in federal funds to Pennsylvania last year, and an additional $91 million from private industry. In addition, as part of its Invent Penn State initiative, the University has funded 21 innovation hubs, designed to bolster entrepreneurship and economic development in communities surrounding its campuses across Pennsylvania. Penn State’s outreach and online programs — ranging from 4H to Cooperative Extension, from summer camps to public broadcasting — provide
educational and service programs to more than a million Pennsylvania households annually.
THE BEGINNING The University’s presence throughout Pennsylvania today contrasts sharply with its humble beginnings. Chartered as a college of scientific agriculture, the institution was located in rural Centre County after James Irvin, a partner in the Centre Furnace iron works (remains of which can be seen today along East College Avenue), offered to donate 200 acres of farmland for a campus.
By the 1890s Penn State was making its mark. It ranked among the nation’s 10 largest undergraduate engineering schools, a distinction it still holds. It established one of the nation’s first collegiate agricultural experiment stations, and Professor Whitman Jordan’s pioneering research on using fertilizers for soil enrichment had global impact on crop yields. Penn State in 1871 became one of the first land-grant schools in the Northeast to admit women, graduated its first international student in 1890, and its first African-American student in 1905.
THE 20TH CENTURY In the early 1900s, President Edwin E. Sparks supported a number of efforts to “carry the college to the people,” as he liked to say. Technical institutes were established in various locations statewide for engineering education, beginning with an evening school in Allentown in 1910. In 1912, Penn State helped create a system of county agents in agriculture and home economics. Today, the Penn State World Campus, with its “anywhere, anytime” learning
Founding President Evan Pugh wanted the fledgling institution to embody a new approach to higher education that blended classical studies with subjects that had practical value. He joined similar visionaries in other states in convincing Congress to pass the Morrill Land-Grant Act in 1862. The act gave individual states tracts of federal land to sell;

through the Internet, builds on that outreach tradition. But undergraduate education remained foremost. Enrollment surpassed 5,000 students by 1936, including those attending several undergraduate centers that were created for students who, in the depths of the Great Depression, could not afford to leave their hometowns to get a college education. The centers offered the first year of baccalaureate studies and were the predecessors of today’s statewide system of campuses. Thanks to this innovative approach to higher education, Penn State in the 1930s became Pennsylvania’s largest single source of baccalaureate degrees, a distinction it holds to this day.

POST-WORLD WAR II Following World War II, Penn State underwent unprecedented expansion, first to meet the needs of returning military veterans and later to accommodate the Baby Boom generation. Total enrollment at all Penn State campuses climbed to 40,000 by 1970.
TODAY The University Park campus is Penn State’s administrative and research hub. In addition, there are 19 primarily undergraduate campuses; Penn State Health Milton S. Hershey Medical Center and the College of Medicine; the Pennsylvania College of Technology; Penn State Law: Dickinson Law; the Penn State Great Valley School of Graduate Professional Studies; and the Penn State World Campus. To date, Penn State has awarded more than 840,000 degrees, hallmarks of an educational experience second to none in quality. In addition, Penn State alumni — including 348,000 in Pennsylvania alone — have job- and social-networking opportunities that no other college or university in the Commonwealth can surpass.
NITTANY LION LEGEND Penn State’s athletic symbol, chosen by the student body in 1906, is the mountain lion which once roamed central Pennsylvania. H.D. “Joe” Mason, a member of the Class of 1907, conducted a one-man campaign to choose a school mascot after seeing the Princeton tiger on a trip with the Penn State baseball team to that New Jersey campus. A student publication sponsored the campaign to select a mascot and Penn State is believed to be the first college to adopt the lion as a mascot. Since Penn State is located in the Nittany Valley at the foot of Mount Nittany, the lion was designated as a Nittany Lion. In regional folklore, Nittany (or Nita-Nee) was a valorous Indian princess in whose honor the Great Spirit caused Mount Nittany to be formed. A later namesake, daughter of chief O-Ko-Cho, who lived near the mouth of Penn’s Creek, fell in love with Malachi Boyer, a trader. The tearful maiden and her lost lover became legend and her name was given to the stately mountain.
LION SHRINE Penn State’s Nittany Lion shrine was dedicated on Oct. 24, 1942, during Homecoming Weekend. Animal sculptor Heinz Warneke and stonecutter Joseph Garatti molded a 13ton block of Indiana limestone into the most recognizable symbol of Penn State. The shrine was chosen from six models submitted by

THE LION SHRINE Warneke. The shrine is a gift of the Class of 1940 and rests in a natural setting of trees near Recreation Building. The site was chosen because of its accessibility, the surrounding trees and the fact that the sculpture would not be dwarfed by nearby buildings.
BLUE & WHITE Penn State’s student-athletes are instantly identified by their blue and white uniforms — but those weren’t the original school colors. A three-member committee representing the sophomore, junior and senior classes was appointed in October of 1887 to develop color options from which the student body would select the school’s official colors. Dark pink and black was the unanimous choice of the student body after considering the color combinations presented by the committee. Soon many students and the baseball team were sporting pink and black striped blazers and caps. However, problems arose when the pink faded to white after several weeks of exposure to the sun. The students then opted for blue, rather than black, and white. The official announcement of the new choice was made on March 18, 1890.

The University also emerged on the national scene as a research powerhouse in fields as diverse as dairy science, acoustics, psychology and diesel engineering. The expansion of research went hand in hand with a steady increase in the number of graduate students. The University awarded its first graduate degree — a master’s degree in scientific agriculture — in 1862, and the Graduate School was established in 1922. But overall graduate enrollment remained modest until the 1950s, then swelled steadily. The Graduate School has awarded to date approximately 130,000 master’s, doctoral and other advanced degrees.

In 2013-14, Cal secured the largest field naming-rights deal in collegiate sports history at the time, when Kabam, a technology company, signed on to name Kabam Field at California Memorial Stadium. Named one of the “100 Most Influential Women in Business” in the Bay Area according to the San Francisco Business Times, NACDA named Barbour a regional Athletic Director of the Year for 2008-09 and she was a finalist for National AD of the Year at the Sports Business Awards. She also was recognized as the 2006 National Association of Collegiate Women Athletics Administrators (NACWAA) Division I-A National Administrator of the Year. Prior to her tenure at Berkeley, Barbour was the deputy director of athletics at Notre Dame, serving as the university’s senior athletic administrator from July 2002 to September 2004. She previously held an associate athletic director position there starting in 2000. In her position at Notre Dame, Barbour oversaw facilities and event operations for the school’s 26-sport program, including football game management and the department’s two golf courses. She was also responsible for developing, maintaining and implementing Notre Dame’s $127 million athletics facilities master plan. In 1996, Barbour was appointed Tulane’s director of athletics at age 36, and during her three years overseeing the program, Green Wave teams won 12 conference championships. In her first year in the position, the school captured four conference titles, a feat never before accomplished in Tulane history. She also hired Tommy Bowden as head football coach during her first year. Bowden proceeded in 1997 to post the Green Wave’s first winning season (7-4) in 16 years, and then directed the school to a 12-0 record, a Conference USA championship and a No. 7 national ranking the following season as the 1998 Liberty Bowl champions. Barbour was recruited to Tulane as an associate athletic director in 1991. Born in Annapolis, Md., Barbour grew up in a military family. Her father was a career aviator in the U.S. Navy, and her family lived in various U.S. locations as well as in Western Europe during her childhood. Barbour graduated cum laude in 1981 with a B.S. degree in physical education from Wake Forest University, where she was a four-year letterwinner and served as captain of the field hockey team.

Six months after arriving at Penn State, she announced a reorganization of ICA that introduced a more vertical structure to encourage communication and collaboration across functional units and sports. Four administrative divisions were formed: student-athlete performance, health and welfare; internal and external operation, administration and business and finance. Midway through 2015, Penn State Athletics launched a wide-ranging strategic planning process and conducted a series of town hall meetings. Students, faculty and staff, alumni, donors and the public were presented with some of the initial find-
ings of the project and had an opportunity to provide feedback. The project helped determine strategies and priorities for the formalized 2017-21 strategic plan. Barbour also is overseeing a comprehensive facilities master plan that was announced in March 2017. Penn State partnered with Populous, one of the world’s leading architecture and sport event planning firms, to collaborate on programming, developing and producing a comprehensive facilities master plan to provide a 20-year road map for addressing current and long-term needs for all of the Nittany Lions’ facilities (competition, practice, performance enhancement and training). Less than two months after the facilities master plan was unveiled in 2017, Penn State announced a $3.55 million gift from men’s lacrosse letterman and graduate Ken Panzer and his business partner, Jordan Kaplan, to launch construction on a new lacrosse facility. The project will transform the Penn State Lacrosse Field to become one of the top lacrosse venues in the nation. Construction on Panzer Stadium is on schedule for completion prior to the 2018 fall semester. AD of the Year Recipient in 2016-17 and Finalist in 2018 Barbour’s leadership was recognized with her selection for the prestigious National Association of Collegiate Directors of Athletics (NACDA) Under Armour AD of the Year Award in 2016-17, having directed Penn State to nine conference championships and one NCAA title. She was among four Football Bowl Subdivision (FBS) Athletic Directors to be honored at the 2017 NACDA Convention, marking the second time she’s received the NACDA honor. In March 2018, she was named one of five finalists for Sports Business Journal’s prestigious Athletic Director of the Year. Barbour, the recent chair of the Big Ten Athletic Directors, was recognized at the 11th Annual SBJ Sports Business Awards Gala in New York City in May, the second time she’s been a finalist for SBJ’s Athletic Director of the Year. Ten Years Leading Cal Athletics to Consistent Comprehensive Excellence Serving as the Director of Athletics at Cal from 2004-14, Barbour guided the Golden Bears through one of the most successful periods in school history. Under her direction, the athletic department became one of the consistently elite programs in the country. Barbour’s 10-year term as AD was the longest tenure for the department since men’s and women’s athletics merged into a single entity in 1992. During her tenure overseeing Cal’s 30-sport program, the Golden Bears won 20 team national championships, 97 individual national titles, finished in the top 10 in the annual Learfield Directors’ Cup standings six times, including a program-best third in 2011, and reached record levels in ticket sales, sponsorships and fundraising. Among Cal’s many team athletic accomplishments under Barbour’s leadership were a 2006 Pac-12 co-championship and seven bowl game invitations in football; the men’s basketball team’s first conference title in 50 years in 2009-10; a first-ever NCAA Final Four berth in women’s basketball in 2013, two trips to the national semifinals in women’s volleyball and six NCAA Championships in men’s and women’s swimming and diving.
