Reports: New 5,000-seat arena on horizon for Arizona State hockey

The Arizona Board of Regents will meet Thursday to discuss plans for a new multi-purpose hockey arena as well as renovations to Wells Fargo Arena, arizonasports.com and azcentral.com reported.

The arena will hold 5,000 seats, approximately 175,000 gross-square-foot, with 250 to 300 club and 48 loge seats, according to the Arizona Boards of Regents’ project schedule. It will also host wrestling and gymnastics.

The project is expected to cost $160 million in total out of the ASU’s $590 million capital development plan and is projected to be constructed by the 2020-21 hockey season.
