"Tom Rooney, president of Team Lemieux LLC, said that the Penguins have
approached four local colleges about fielding a Division I hockey program.
Rooney would not divulge which schools have been contacted, but ruled out
one that already has attained Division I hockey status."

The one ruled out is Mercyhurst, mainly because of their distance from
Pittsburgh.

There is also a note about Ohio State playing a game in Pittsburgh during
the 2003 season.
