Default Speed issue with Multilple Web Queries

A co-worker was working on a spreadsheet that is pulling sports team
data
Each schedule is on a different URL and as such he has to call the
function 30 times.
This is a slow process. Is there anyway to call multiple web queries
without having to initialize a new connection?

i've included the code in case there is something else in the code
that could be causing the slow-down.

thanks in advance


Function GetSchedule(Team As String) As Worksheet
Dim Dst As Worksheet
Dim DstRange As Range
Dim Name As String
Dim Connection As String

Set Dst = ActiveWorkbook.Worksheets.Add
Set DstRange = Dst.Range("A1")

'All Text
Dst.Cells.NumberFormat = "@"

Connection = "URL;http://www.nhl.com/nhl/app?
service=page&page=TeamSchedule" & _
"&team=" & Team & "&season=" & Season
Name = "app?service=page&page=TeamSchedule&team=" & Team &
"&season=" & Season

With Dst.QueryTables.Add(Connection:=Connection,
Destination:=DstRange)
.Name = Name
.FieldNames = True
.RowNumbers = False
.FillAdjacentFormulas = False
.PreserveFormatting = True
.RefreshOnFileOpen = False
.BackgroundQuery = True
.RefreshStyle = xlInsertDeleteCells
.SavePassword = False
.SaveData = True
.AdjustColumnWidth = True
.RefreshPeriod = 0
.WebSelectionType = xlSpecifiedTables
.WebFormatting = xlWebFormattingNone
.WebTables = TablesToGrab
.WebPreFormattedTextToColumns = True
.WebConsecutiveDelimitersAsOne = True
.WebSingleBlockTextImport = False
.WebDisableDateRecognition = True
.WebDisableRedirections = False
.Refresh BackgroundQuery:=False
End With

Set GetSchedule = Dst
End Function
