BUFFALO, NY – In recognition of a leadership gift made by the Murchie family to the recently announced fieldhouse, the UB Council endorsed a resolution, on Monday, to name the new fieldhouse at the University at Buffalo, the Murchie Family Fieldhouse in honor of former UB hockey player Tunney Murchie and his family. The naming is subject to the approval of the SUNY Chancellor and the SUNY Board of Trustees.
This most recent gift by the Murchie family is the single largest gift ever made to the athletic department, and has helped make the long awaited fieldhouse a reality for UB.
