Oak View Group, the Los Angeles-based company hoping to build a $250 million arena in the Coachella Valley with private financing, is touting an economic impact of hundreds of millions initially. But at least one local mayor is skeptical, saying sports arena projects are notorious for over-promising and under-delivering.
The proposed arena that could break ground near Palm Desert this spring is expected to host as many as 180 events per year. That kind of activity has the potential for an annual attendance of more than 1 million, and some believe it could have a significant economic impact in the valley.

After taking down ACC rival Virginia Cavaliers by ten goals last week, the Syracuse Orange had to hold off a feisty Vermont Catamounts squad.
The Catamounts dominated the faceoff dot with Tommy Burke going 24-for-34 (70%) on the day. They also won the ground ball battle (42-29) and went 20-for-22 in the clearing game while Syracuse went 23-for-28. Vermont also outshot Syracuse 55-32 and put 33 of their shots on cage. Syracuse put 29 shots on cage.
Despite the edge that the Catamounts were able to gain throughout the course of the game, the Orange prevailed and secure the 17-13 victory. Stephen Rehfuss led the Syracuse offense with eight points (2G/6A) while Owen Hiltz had four goals and one assist. Drake Porter made 20 saves with a 60% save percentage.
