Tennessee State University announced Wednesday it would be the first Historically Black College or University (HBCU) to introduce a college hockey program.

TSU is holding a joint press conference with the Nashville Predators and the NHL ahead of the NHL Draft in which more specifics will be provided.

A pre-existing relationship between the Predators and TSU is what laid the foundation for the school partnering with the Preds, the NHL and College Hockey Inc.

From there, TSU took part in a feasibility study that was administered by College Hockey Inc., an entity that works to grow the collegiate game.
