The University of Denver's hockey team recently debuted a special jersey to celebrate the program's 75th anniversary. This unique jersey will be worn by the team both on and off the ice throughout the 2024-25 season. The big reveal took place during the third period of the Pioneers' game against the University of Wisconsin at Magness Arena on October 25th.
The design of the jersey pays homage to the team's very first uniform, worn during their inaugural season in 1949-50. The classic red and yellow color scheme, representing the school's original colors, can be seen on the sweater, breezer, socks, gloves, and helmet. The jersey also features six yellow stripes on the sleeves and socks.
In addition to the throwback design, the jersey also includes some special details. Just below the left shoulder is the iconic interlocking DU logo, while the player's number sits above a bold yellow stripe in the center of the jersey. On the shoulders, you'll find the Denver Pioneers' 75th anniversary patch and the NCHC patch. And if you look closely at the inner collar, you'll see the phrase "Always A Pioneer" written in bold lettering.
Fans will have the chance to see the team donning this special jersey for the first time on November 9th during the 75th Anniversary Weekend game against Lindenwood University. This game will also feature alumni from each decade of Denver hockey, coming together to celebrate the program's milestone anniversary.
If you want to get your hands on this one-of-a-kind jersey, it is currently available for purchase at the DU Bookstore on-campus location and the Pioneer Shops at Magness Arena. However, at this time, only in-person purchases are being accepted. Don't miss out on this opportunity to own a piece of Denver hockey history.
