Class of 1965 Arena is a 2,222-seat multi-purpose

Starr Arena which had been in service since 1959.[1] The ice rink is named the Steven J. Riggs '65 Rink, in honor of Steven Riggs, one of Colgate's best hockey players in the program's history, who was killed in action on September 3, 1968, in Quy Thien, Vietnam.[2] The facility was built partly with the aid of 559 donors, a significant number of whom represented the Colgate Class of 1965. The facility cost $37.8 million.[3]
