2003 ECAC Champions gear?

[jtwcornell91]

Does anyone know if t-shirts, hats, etc commemorating Cornell's ECAC/Ivy titles are available somewhere?  The last time I checked on the Campus Store website, they didn't seem to be there.

2 weeks ago, I went to the Campus Store, Bear Necessities, and Cecil's Campus Clothing (formerly Turk Bros.).  The only championship gear was at Cecil's in the form of a very loud ECAC t-shirt.  It was grey with a hard-to-read "Champions" text arced above Huggy-Bear, with the ECAC oval logo at the bottom.  I didn't buy it.  There was nothing at the Campus Store or Bear Necessities.

There of course is the stuff at ivysport.com

I had asked Sue at the hockey office about Championship gear, and she mentioned the name of someone in Athletics who was working on getting ECAC licensing approval.  I can probably do more questioning next week at reunion.  I would love replicas of the team's on-ice ECAC championship hats and really any good-looking shirts.  I bought just about all the '96 and '97 hats and t-shirts.

Maybe Perfect Screen Printers will make Championship stuff to sell at Lynah next season.

Basically, I think we have to let people know that if they make it, there's a lot of people on and off this board who will buy it.

I ordered a Frozen Four shirt through the USCHO store, but have received email that it is still back-ordered.  Maybe if more people ordered it, they would get the order filled faster.

Thanks for the legwork, Rich.  The hats and T-shirts from 1996 and 1997 were rather nice.  Classy, to the point, not overstated.  the only downside is that "IVY LEAGUE ECAC CHAMPIONS" looks a little too much like just "IVY LEAGUE HOCKEY CHAMPIONS", so it'd be nice to see the ECAC part emphasized a little more.

Didn't those not say Cornell on them at all, though?  I recall them being generic hats that were made to be given to either team (as opposed to the big-time practice of making two sets and destroying the other lest they become black-market collector's items).

I picked up a Frozen Four shirt in Buffalo that was much better looking than that one, if only because it was in Carnellian Red and not crimson  ::yark:: , like that link.  It's a little louder, but I figured I'd let people know about the option if they're still selling it anywhere out there.

They at least have the large shirts in stock now, mine was shipped yesterday.  Thanks for putting up that link, I was pissed that I didn't get one in Buffalo.

Just to update...I went to PSP last week, and was told that they would indeed have ECAC championship shirts for sale at Lynah this fall.

Also, the Campus Store has a white ECAC championship hat for sale now.  The graphic is a bold, red stiched "Cornell" at the top, crossed hockey sticks with a "2003" below that, and "ECAC Hockey Champions" at the bottom.  It's pretty decent quality, and at $14.95, cheaper than most other hats the Store carries.

Cool.  Thanks Rich.

BTW, has anyone seen NCAA Regional Champions gear for any of the Frozen Four participants?  On some level it seems like a better thing to be proud of than just playing in the Frozen Four.

It does?  "Regional Chmapions" sounds like a cheesy marketing title, kind of like baseball teams donning "Wild Card Champion" T-shirts and caps.  I'd rather wear an Ivy Champs T-shirt than an East Regional one.

I'm with Keith here. I'd rather say "Frozen Four" than "Regional Champion" because the meaning of "Frozen Four" is so much clearer.

Does anybody have one of these Frozen Four shirts from 2003 in a mens large? Would purchase it to wear to games!

I would love it if some vintage Cornell souvenirs were available somewhere. Anybody have old hats or shirts they want to get rid of (for a reasonable price)?
