🎧 @blkhky had a great time joining the MEAC & More podcast today! Coach A shared how we’re building something special while connecting with the broader HBCU community. Big things ahead! 🐅🏒

@blkhky had the opportunity to chat with @nbcwashington about our program, spreading the word to the DMV area.
Text TSUHockey to 41444 to support the program. 🐅🏒🥅
I’m proud to donate $10,000 to Tennessee State University’s historic NCAA D1 men’s hockey team—the first at an HBCU! This isn’t just about hockey; it’s about breaking barriers and creating opportunities. A dream that’s been two years in the making is finally becoming a reality—and it will be even more impactful with your support! Let’s help TSU make history—join me in supporting this team! Supporters can contribute to @TSUTigersHockey by texting "TSUHockey" to 41444 or by visiting TSUTigers.com/Hockey/Donate.
Thanks to the @TSUedu Detroit Alumni Chapter for the hospitality last night. Coach @blkhky and @nguerriero had a blast talking hockey and the importance it will have not only at TSU but across all HBCUs.
“A lot of people always think country music when they think about Nashville, but I wanted to go the opposite direction and try to use hip hop, and one of the elements of hip hop is a graffiti street art."

ALT Image of the details on the BMHN jersey. Text reads "This design is inspired by hip hop and graffiti street art. The crown, which includes the Tri-Star logo of Tennessee, is a nod to past and present African American art and represents royalty. The bass clef shoulder patch connects the vibration of music with the energy of hockey."
Thanks as always for the support @Capitals, and providing me with the opportunity to spread my love of hockey with my HBCU family. @HowardU really represented today, and those students have very bright futures ahead of them. #ALLCAPS

FFDIA grieves with WFSC, USFS and our wider community. American Airlines Flight 5342 carried young athletes, their families, and their coaches home from the National Development Camp. Some were from the local DMV area.
From daily usage of the content on @TheCoachesSite website, to presenting at the Annual Conference at @UMich. WOW, this is truly a full circle moment. I’ll see you all this summer!!! 🐅 🏒
Tonight’s another great chance to connect with our coaching staff! Catch us at Bridgestone Arena during the @PredsNHL vs. @penguins game.
📺 Can’t make it in person? Tune into the broadcast as @blkhky joins @FDSN_Predators as the first period intermission guest. Don’t miss it!
