Frank Ritter Ice Arena (85' x 185') is home to the Rochester Institute of Technology men's and women's hockey teams, as well as the Genesee Figure Skating Club. The arena has hosted five NCAA Championships, most recently the women's Division III final in 2010-11. In 2008, the arena celebrated its 40th anniversary.

Formerly known as Shumway Arena, the facility has undergone several renovations. A new sound system, lights, ceiling, and dasher boards have been added to help make Ritter Arena one of the best facilities in the Atlantic Hockey Association. In the last four years, both team locker rooms were renovated, a visitor's locker room was added, and the compressors were replaced. In 2008, a state-of-the-art television studio was built to accommodate live hockey broadcasts on Time Warner Cable Sports. RIT is one of a handful of Division I programs that can broadcast games in high definition.

In 2011, a 3.5-million-dollar project completed to expand the current men's and women's hockey locker rooms, with coaching offices and video and training rooms to be added in the lower level of the arena.
