LOOK – Denver Pioneers unveil 75h anniversary hockey uniforms

Nov 5, 2024, 4:20 PM | Updated: Nov 6, 2024, 4:16 pm

The University of Denver Pioneers are the cream of the crop in college hockey, winning two of the last three National Championships, including last year’s. This year they’ll look extra sharp defending that championship…

Currently ranked as the number one team in the NCAA rankings, DU hockey officially unveiled the hockey program’s 75th Anniversary jersey that the team will wear numerous times during the 2024-25 season.

Denver’s jersey is a throwback to the one that was originally worn by the squad when the program first began play in the 1949-50 season. The red sweater, breezer, socks, gloves and helmet are trimmed with yellow, the school’s original color palette. Six yellow strips are displayed on the  jersey sleeves and socks.

The Pioneers will wear the uniform for the first time on Saturday (Nov. 9) during the program’s 75th Anniversary Weekend against Lindenwood. Alumni from each decade of Denver hockey will be in attendance to celebrate the program’s diamond jubilee.

75th Anniversary merchandise can also be purchased exclusively at the DU Bookstore.
