UPEI Men’s Hockey host final home games before the holidays

The UPEI Men's Hockey team is hosting its final home games before the holiday break on Friday, November 29 and Saturday, November 30. In support and celebration of the holiday season, a few events will be taking place during the games.

On Friday, November 29, Panther fans are encouraged to participate in National Jersey Day by wearing their favourite jerseys in support and love for sport. Fans are also asked to bring along any non-perishable food items as donations are being collected at both games in support of the UPEI Campus Food Bank.

On Saturday, November 30, the 'UPEI Student-Athlete 10 4 10 $10,000 Draw' will take place. Fans can purchase tickets at the weekend games, or from any student athlete before the games. A special Santa Claus Race will also take place between periods on Saturday night. In addition, a beer garden will open an hour before game time, and as always, fans will be treated to giveaways, promotions, and entertainment at both games.

Cheer on your UPEI Panthers as they take on the St. Francis Xavier X-Men on Friday at 7:30 pm and the Saint Mary's University Huskies on Saturday at 7:00 pm. The Panthers, currently ranked tenth in the CIS are tied for fourth in the AUS standings with the X-Men, while the SMU Huskies remain in fifth place.

Go Panthers Go!
