What is CSU Hockey?
Beginning in 1991, the Colorado State University hockey team started participating in the Division II league of the American Collegiate Hockey Association (website), a non-scholarship, non-profit league playing under the guidelines of USA Hockey (website). CSU functions as a Club Sport under the guidance of the student Campus Recreation Office (website). The team is self-sufficient, being led and operated by volunteer coaches, officers and interns. The hockey season typically runs from tryouts in September to the national championship in March with a month break in December. The team has dry-land practices twice a week and on-ice practice twice a week throughout the year and usually plays 2-3 games on weekends and 30-35 games a season. The team travels at various places around the west and the nation two or three times a semester. CSU perennially resides among the top ranked teams in the nation out of over 130 teams in the ACHA Division II and finished third in the 2005-06 season. CSU last won the National Championship in 1995.
