AMU Wins Big at Game Officially Opening New Field House

The Ave Maria men's basketball team didn't disappoint the enthusiastic crowd that showed up Saturday afternoon for the game that officially opened the Tom Golisano Field House. The Gyrenes put on an impressive offensive show, dominating Trinity College to win 105-85.

The field house was officially opened before the game at a ribbon-cutting ceremony attended by Mr. Golisano, a billionaire philanthropist who also is a co-owner of the Buffalo Sabres hockey team, and AMU chancellor Tom Monaghan.
