http://mankatofreepresshockey.blogspot.com/2015/07/civic-center-project-taking-shape.html
Tuesday, July 7, 2015. Civic center project taking shape. Photos by John Cross/The Free Press. Monday was quite a day for the future of the Minnesota State hockey team. The announcement of Mike Hastings' new contract with MSU somewhat overshadowed the first half of the event at the Verizon Wireless Center. The day started with a tour of the new hockey facilities being constructed at the arena, and a discussion of that project, which is more than half done, followed. Read my story on upgrades here.

The blog of Free Press sports editor Jim Rueda. Monday, September 12, 2011. An upside down day in Week 1. To quote Steve Martin and Dan Akroyd, it was a wild and crazy Sunday as the NFL opened its season in earnest. Who'd have thought Cam Newton would be a stud and Ben Roethlisberger would be a dud? Or that Shonn Greene would be invisible while Mike Tolbert looked invincible? As for the running backs Houstons' Ben Tate went off in Arian Foster's absence with 116 yards rushing and a touchdown. He's gr...
