The game will be held at Truist Field in the downtown area of Charlotte, home of the Triple-A Knights baseball team. A start time has not been announced, but it’s likely to be at night to anticipate colder weather.

Truist Field will be transformed into a hockey rink, similar to how many Major League Baseball parks have been converted for NHL games.

Tech shared the news on its X page, but there was a mistake on the poster, which says Georgia Tech will face “Eastern Carolina,” leaving some fans miffed. The error had not been fixed as of Monday night.
