Salt Lake City, Utah
Utah Hockey is proud to announce the return of the Wasatch Cup Tournament to the University of Utah from January 31st through February 1st, 2025.
The annual tournament, now entering its 10th season, brings all American Collegiate Hockey Association Division 2 hockey teams in the Great State of Utah into one tournament. This includes University of Utah, Utah State University, Utah Valley University, and Weber State University against each other to decide which college will reign supreme in the Beehive State.
Utah is three time champion of the Wasatch Cup, winning the tournament for the first three seasons; 2015, 2016, 2017.
This year’s tournament will occur January 30-February 1, 2025 with all four games occurring at the Salt Lake City Sports Complex in Salt Lake City, UT on January 31st and February 1st.
The tournament is set up similar to the famed Beanpot Hockey Tournament in Boston, Massachusetts where the local colleges play for the tournament title. There will be two semifinal games on January 31st. The highest ranked team will play the lowest ranked team in one semifinal and the second highest ranked team will play the third highest ranked team in the other semifinal. The seeding is determined by the January ACHA M2 rankings.
The two losing schools will play in a consolation game on February 1st at 4:30 PM, followed by the two winning schools playing in the championship game to decide the Wasatch Cup at 7:30 PM.
With each team always playing a different amount of games against each other throughout the season, this two-day tournament is aimed to not only showcase college hockey in Utah, but finally put an end to the annual debate over which team is the best in the state.
“We are excited to host the 10th Annual Wasatch Cup in Salt Lake! This tournament always brings together the toughest teams in the state. Thank you to Utah Hockey for all your efforts to make this event a reality,” said Clay Partain, Director of Sports Marketing with Visit Salt Lake.
“It’s great to see the tournament come home to where it was founded, said GM AJ Boldan. It will be a great weekend of College Hockey!”
