Providence to host Dartmouth in outdoor women’s game at Fenway

Providence will host Dartmouth in a women’s game at Fenway Park on Jan. 10 at 3 p.m. as part of Sun Life Frozen Fenway 2012.

The game was originally scheduled for Dec. 31 at Providence.

“The team is very excited about getting to play at Fenway,” Dartmouth head coach Mark Hudak said in a news release. “It should be a great experience for the team and for Providence and for everyone else that is going to be there. It is going to be a great event all around.

“There are going to be a lot of differences, but both teams have to deal with that. It’s not that its going to be an uneven playing field. Hopefully, there will be some ice on Occom Pond by then, so we can get outside and practice a little bit.”
