SEASON NOTES

Waterloo Warriors begin play at the new Young Arena in January of 1995.

Scott Clemmensen, Des Moines Capitals, plays his junior and final season in net with the IHSHL. Scott went on to star for the USHL Des Moines Bucccaneers from 1995-97 before going on to a standout collegiate career at Boston College from 1997 through 2001. Scott then began a 14-year career in professional hockey moving between the NHL and AHL. Most of his NHL goaltending was spent with the New Jersey Devils and Florida Panthers for a total of 191 NHL games in net. In 2015-16 he was named as the New Jersey Devils Goaltender Development Coach.

The All-Star game is moved from a January event to a date during the Jr. Varsity tournament.

Des Moines Valley-Dowling changes its name to the Des Moines Capitals.

The Quad City Sports Center in Davenport (now called The River's Edge) opens in December of 1994.

The Jr. Varsity tournament is now rotated from team to team. It will be hosted by the team a year before hosting the Varsity tournament.

Omaha Jr. Lancers wins its first regular-season championship and first tournament championship.

The Varsity tournament is held at the new Young Arena in Waterloo. The banquet is Saturday, March 11, at the Sullivan Brothers Civic Center with special guest speaker Keith Magnuson, former NHL standout with the Chicago Blackhawks. (no program cover)
