Clearview Arena (formerly the RMU Island Sports Center Ice Arena, 84 Lumber Arena and Colonials Arena) is a 1,200-seat ice hockey rink[1] located in the RMU Island Sports Center. Robert Morris University and 84 Lumber reached a deal by which 84 Lumber would receive naming rights as of March 21, 2012.[2] The arena later dropped the 84 Lumber name before the 2017-18 season and reverted to being known as the Colonials Arena at the RMU Island Sports Center.[3] Announced on October 13, 2020, the arena would be renamed Clearview Arena after securing a naming rights deal with Clearview Federal Credit Union.[3]

It was home to the Robert Morris Colonials men's and women's NCAA Division I ice hockey teams that competed in Atlantic Hockey and College Hockey America respectively, as well as RMU's club hockey team competing at the ACHA Division I level in the College Hockey Mid-America conference (CHMA) and various local youth hockey programs. In addition, it is home to the Pittsburgh Curling Club.[4]

The arena served as the former home of the Pittsburgh Forge Junior-A NAHL team, which moved to Toledo, Ohio in 2003.[5] The Pittsburgh Forge are now known as the Corpus Christi IceRays as of 2020.[5]
