Cedar Rapids, IA –During the last eight seasons, the Cedar Rapids RoughRiders, Waterloo Black Hawks and Dubuque Fighting Saints have combined to win five United States Hockey League Anderson Cups, symbolizing excellence during the league’s regular season.
As a result, some of the best hockey in the USHL has been played in eastern Iowa each winter, and once again in 2018/19, the Dupaco Cowbell Cup will be in contention during the biggest games between these fierce rivals. Dupaco has been the presenting sponsor of the Cowbell Cup since 2015/16.
“Supporting community events and bringing value to our members are both important Dupaco initiatives,” said Joe Hearn, President and CEO of Dupaco Community Credit Union. “As the presenting sponsor of the Dupaco Cowbell Cup series, we’re supporting three of the communities in which we have a strong presence of Dupaco Credit Union members. This partnership allows us to help provide excellent family-friendly events to our members and the community at large.”
Each team will play six home games contributing to the standings (three versus each rival). Points for the Dupaco Cowbell Cup will be awarded based head-to-head results from these matchups (a complete schedule of Dupaco Cowbell Cup games appears below): two for a win and one for an overtime or shootout loss.
An uneven number of regular season games between the RoughRiders, Black Hawks and Saints in 2018/19 means the following matchups will NOT count toward the standings: October 6th (Cedar Rapids at Dubuque), October 17th (Dubuque at Cedar Rapids), November 22nd (Cedar Rapids at Waterloo), February 1st (Dubuque at Cedar Rapids).
Dupaco Community Credit Union is a full-service, member-owned financial cooperative. With offices located in Waterloo/Cedar Falls, Dubuque, and Cedar Rapids, Dupaco helps to improve the financial lives of its more than 100,000 member-owners while making a positive difference in the communities it serves.
The RoughRiders won the Dupaco Cowbell Cup in their Anderson Cup winning 2015/16 season. The RoughRiders are entering their 20th season in Cedar Rapids.
