Ira S. Wilson Ice Arena
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Ira S. Wilson Ice Arena (affectionately known as the Ira) is an ice arena located on the campus of the State University of New York College at Geneseo. It is the home ice of the Ice Knights, Geneseo's NCAA Division III men's ice hockey team. It is also used by Geneseo Finger Lakes Youth Hockey, as well as numerous students and residents of the town who take advantage of open skating hours during the week.
The arena has a listed capacity of 3500 fans. Though very well attended, hockey games at the Ira rarely approach this attendance figure, with important games drawing 2000-2500 fans from the college and the town. On top of a hockey game, fans are entertained by a pep band (a rarity at the Division III level) and numerous contests and giveaways between periods, including student broomball spectacles and the fan-favorite chuck-a-puck contest.
