UW Athletics is trying to raise gift funds for a new practice and competition facility for the menâ??s and womenâ??s hockey programs. It would be located adjacent to the Kohl Center, cost $25 million and provide upgrades to the nearby Southeast Recreational Facility that would benefit the menâ??s and womenâ??s swim teams. But no one with ties to the hockey programs has come forth to write the big check. UW Athletic Director Barry Alvarez said between $8 million and $9 million in donations needs to be in hand by the end of the year or heâ??ll either delay or halt the project.
