Exactly. I’m a big fan of College Hockey and that has a rich 100+ year history in the area. Outside the Beanpot and maybe Hockey East finals it barely has any coverage though. I don’t see how this will any better

That will always have core fans because it’s an excuse for college students to drink and hang out. And it leverages the already large hockey fanbase here since you get to see a lot of good games / prospects. The fact that it’s actually exciting is just a bonus… which women’s softball definitely isn’t (baseball has had declining viewership relative to other sports because of its lethargic pace of play)

Edit: it’s soccer, not softball lmao
