Fall/Winter Season
The season promises to provide our student-athletes with outstanding opportunities to compete in high school hockey. As one of only a few high school sponsored hockey programs in Illinois. We plan to field two Varsity Teams (Green & Gold) and one Junior Varsity Teams (White). All three teams will play in the Scholastic Hockey League. Hockey is a lettered sport at Stevenson High School and our teams play in the most competitive Illinois High School league in the state.
