LEXINGTON, Ky. (LEX 18) — The UK men's club hockey team is officially headed to nationals for the first time since 2008 after receiving an overwhelming amount of donations and support from BBN.

As of Sunday morning, the team has raised $68,453 out of $80,000, allowing them the opportunity to go to the ACHA 2023 National Championships.

Due to their status as a club team, they don't receive funding from the University of Kentucky.

The tournament will be held in Boston, Massachusetts from March 17-21.
