To kick off the first home game of the season, the Bulls are playing none other than our rivals, the University of Central Florida Knights. Ending last weekend with a winning game, the Bulls are excited to take on our opponents down I-4 this Friday.

UCF has played four games so far this season to the opponents of Embry–Riddle Aeronautical University (ERAU) and the University of Tampa (UT). All four of those games have ended in losses for the Golden Knights with two games to UT on September 10th (7-4) and September 11th (7-1), and the other two games being won by ERAU on September 17th (4-3) and September 18th (3-1).

Meanwhile, the USF Hockey Club has a record of 1-1 so far this season with a loss and win during the Georgia road trip last weekend. As mentioned in the weekend recap article, the Bulls fell short to the University of Georgia on September 17th (3-1), but rebounded with a win to Georgia Tech on September 18th (4-3). The Bulls cannot wait to welcome fans back to their home ice arena at AdventHealth Center Ice on Friday, September 24th at 6pm. Directions and information about the team’s home arena is located on our website. Admission is free, so bring a friend and come support the Bulls during their home opener rivalry game against UCF.
