HANOVER, N.H. -- The Dartmouth College Athletic Department and Ledyard National Bank announced today a new four-year marketing partnership agreement, which includes expansion of the Ledyard National Bank Men’s Hockey Tournament from a biannual event to an annual one.

“We are thrilled to continue our relationship with Ledyard National Bank,” said Sam Hopkins, Associate Athletic Director for Marketing and Promotions at Dartmouth. “We appreciate Ledyard’s support of our community as they help us to provide the very best experience for our student athletes.”

Under the terms of the agreement, Ledyard will receive signage in various Dartmouth athletic facilities as well as in-game promotions and radio advertising. The cornerstone of the partnership is the exclusive naming rights to the men’s hockey holiday tournament. In recent years, the tournament has included such prominent hockey powers as Boston University, North Dakota and Notre Dame.
