Wisconsin Hockey Teams To Play At Wrigley Field

Tuesday, June 11th, 2024 -- 9:05 AM

Both University of Wisconsin hockey teams are part of a Big Ten endeavor focused on playing games at Wrigley Field after the NHL Winter Classic in the upcoming season. 

The conference hasn't announced details but the plans being discussed include three Big Ten men's hockey games and one women's hockey contest involving Big Ten schools Wisconsin and Ohio State.  The Badgers and Buckeyes have faced each other in the last two NCAA women's hockey championship games.  The men's teams involved besides Wisconsin are Michigan State, Michigan, Notre Dame, Ohio State and Penn State.

Dates for the games haven't been confirmed but are likely in the first days of January 2025.

Wrigley Field is scheduled to host an NHL Winter Classic for the second time when the Chicago Blackhawks play the St. Louis Blues on Dec. 31.
