The CCAC Intercollegiate Ice Hockey Team was formed at the North Campus in 2003 where it has been highly competitive--winning the Collegiate Hockey Association Championship in 2005 and 2008. Our team is affiliated with the American College Hockey Association (ACHA) and the Collegiate Hockey Association (CHA). Our program is open to students of any age or sex, provided they are able to compete at the intercollegiate level. All students participating on the team pay a fee for the privilege of playing on the team and must maintain high academic standards.

Students interested in joining the Ice Hockey Team should download and complete the NJCAA Athletic Information Form (below) and return it to the Student Life office.

The team is looking for volunteers to videotape the games next season (2013-14). If you are interested, please contact Chuck Bell at 412.369.3725 or cbell@ccac.edu

Benefit Game for Western Pennsylvania Humane Society

The CCAC North Campus Intercollegiate Ice Hockey Team hosted their fifth annual benefit hockey game on Saturday, December 8, 2012, 7:30 p.m. at the Mt. Lebanon Recreation Center. This year’s charity event benefitted The Western Pennsylvania Humane Society. The game was played against California University of Pennsylvania and raised $3,500 for the Humane Society. Although Cal University beat CCAC by a score of 6-1, a great time was had by all, and the real winners of the event were the animals.

The team officially presented the check to representatives from the Western Pennsylvania Humane Society on Tuesday, February 5, in the CCAC–North Campus Atrium in McCandless, Pa. CCAC–North Campus Dean of Administration Michael Stefanchik; Athletic Director Chuck Bell; Head Coach Marty Palma and several students made the presentation on behalf of the team.

In the past five years, the CCAC–North Campus Intercollegiate Ice Hockey team has raised in excess of $13,500 for local charities.
