Re: University of Jamestown to the Great Plains Athletic Conference
So I understand UJ is getting a new basketball arena and added hockey this fall. Must have some rich alumni.

The bball arena from what I've seen will cost about 14 million and I believe they got somewhere between 4&6 million from the Newman's. I remember reading an article that said the total would be private, but my boss is good friends with a family member and knew the amount I just can't remember what it was now.

They got accepted. Coaches I know do not like this one bit. Of course they didn't have a say in it. The closest school is 240 miles away. Good luck with recruiting.

So, now the new University of Travelocity (Jamestown) will travel 404 miles to Orange City, IA ; 389 to Sioux City (this is a close game for them); 473 to Hasings, NE; 520 to Crete, NE (Yes, Crete) ; 462 to Frement, also in NE; and 492 to Seward, NE. Future recruits must have or will be required to have good (or bad, whatever the case) map reading skills.

Not to worry. They'll still have club hockey.

The 4 scores between the 2 teams would indicate you are correct. 8-1, 6-3, 10-0, and 9-1 all Jimmie wins. The Bison could use the conditioning coach from the football team. :biggrin:

No doubt. That's why they are building a new basketball arena and talks of adding a new hockey arena. The end is far from near.

I haven't been to a Jimmie basketball game in 10 or so years. Now that I get season tickets for the hockey team I will be sure to start going to BB games at the new digs.

Haha, ok bro. Jamestown sends me more propaganda than NDSU and is clearly better fundraisers than most. It's amazing what they can do with a much smaller alumni base....PRIVATE funding.

The school is doing just fine. They have very loyal generous alumni. Look no further than the new basketball arena with the late Harold Newman donating quite a bit for it to be a reality. I highly doubt if they were worried about financing their sports teams that they would of started a men's hockey team. Discussions now are to add a women's team.

I agree...Jamestown will be just fine.

People willing to pay private schooling generally are more inclined to give back. I can name at least 25 friends of mine that do not or will not donate money back to NDSU, they don't really have a reason just said nope..
