    any word on how this is going? does not seem you can check on the balance of donations like with a gofundme-type setup.

    there was a lot of hype when they were raising funds for UAH... it does not seem that there is any excitement around trying to save UAA hockey. am i wrong? i hope so...

    and if that's the case... just watch matt curley apply for the job at UST;

    Matt Curley is the best thing that's happened to Seawolf hockey in many years.
    He more than proved he can take a bottom of the barrel program and elevate it.
    He would be a perfect fit for a program willing to step up to the next level.
    I hope he applies for and gets the UST job.

      I am not sure Curley even cares anymore. He is probably disappointed with the UAA administration too. I have only seen vigorous fundraising for the Skiing and Gymnastic programs...Zip on hockey. Oh well.

          It blows my mind that on UA Giving Day(s), which are today and tomorrow, UAA doesn’t appear to have any direct fundraising pledge matches for hockey (there’s one for 10k that is to be split evenly between hockey, skiing, and gymnastics), and very little for athletics in general. I’m not trying to pour salt in the wound, but UAF athletics has raised $130,000 in about four hours today (including some big pledge matches) compared to $23,000 for UAA. Just seems like a big missed opportunity.
