Chicago Wolves was recently announced as the Canes’ AHL affiliate. It sounds like they (Chicago) conceded on pretty much everything they pitched a fit about when they wanted to go independent.
Division 1 hockey for State & UNC would be so exciting to have for the area. The current club games between these two teams are attracting like 5-6K in attendance.

Assuming this is their way of telling the B10 they are open for business.
Clearly my sarcasm didn’t connect.
It had nothing to do with a practice facility other than the fact Raleigh can’t seem to get ANY sports facility downtown while virtually every other city can (see Wilson NC)…&. while charlotte can even get a damn practice facility…along with all of their other sports venues.

Probably splitting hairs but the Fayetteville’s relocated Crown Event Center will not be a sports venue. It’s a 3,000 seat theater that mostly hosts smaller concerts. Nice to have in downtown, but the Crown Colisseum, home of the esteemed Fayetteville Marksmen – and the only venue capable of hosting A-list musical acts-- is staying put.

Cary will be the center of international soccer next week with “The Soccer Tournament” (TST) here for the 2nd time. This year seems to be even bigger: more teams, more events, more celebrities, bigger media / broadcast reach.

Picture of Carter Finely Stadium under construction in 1966. If you squint hard enough you can see the Stadium Area Plan beginning to take shape, and should be completed by 2030, if we are lucky.

It’s now merely the memory of the shadow cast where the horse died countless ages ago. But each morning, they still ritualistically return to this same spot to pound the barren patch of earth where the dead horse had once laid so, so many years ago.
