Baker Rink is named for Hobart A.H. "Hobey" Baker '14, a multi-sport athlete at Princeton. Baker was a star for the Princeton football team, but excelled most at hockey; in his day he was considered to be the finest amateur hockey player ever to develop in North America. Baker served his country as a fighter pilot during World War I, and was killed while testing a repaired plane.
