+Named after Alfred J. Koeppel '54, this sports center is a multi-use athletic facility on the southern edge of the campus, which opened in November 2006. It was officially dedicated on February 11, 2007.
+The Center features the Albert Creighton Williams '64 Ice Rink, seating for 3,400 fans, and a state-of-the-art 200' x 90' ice arena that serves as home-ice for Trinity men's and women's [[athletics?s[]=hockey#ice_hockey|ice hockey teams]]. The center also provides opportunities for faculty, students, and staff to collaborate with the community through academic and athletic mentoring programs in the [[hartford|Hartford]] area. As early as its 2007 dedication, the //[[tripod|Trinity Tripod]]// reported on concerns about the extent to which the Center actually served Hartford's residents.
