Schools officially announce Trinity vs. Williams game at Fenway Park on 1/7/14

As we reported yesterday, Trinity and Williams will play an outdoor game at Fenway Park on January 7, Trinity and Williams.
2014, as part of the Frozen Fenway series. Today, the schools made it official with press releases from both

As expected, Williams will be the home team and the game will take the place of  conference match-up between the Bantams and Ephs scheduled for January 11th in Williamstown. The outdoor game will be at 7:30 PM, the second half of a D-III doubleheader that will start with Salem State. vs U-Mass Boston at 4:00 PM.

Though Williams is the home team, Fenway Sports Managment (FSM) apparently contacted Trinity first:
"Fenway Sports Management approached NESCAC through Trinity and we were able to move our home game with Trinity to January 7th to play in Fenway," said Williams Athletic Director Lisa Melendy."
The two teams last met at Bowdoin in March for the NESCAC semifinals, with the second seeded Ephs vanquishing the third seeded Bantams 4-2 before going on to lose to Bowdoin in the finals. An outdoor game at Fenway is not a bad little encore to a conference semifinal game. The teams return the NESCAC rivalry indoors for a Trinity home game on February 9th.
