It is easy to forget now with McGill University and the Université de Montréal dominating Quebec university women’s hockey in recent years, but Concordia University has a very rich women’s hockey history.
Concordia won the first two Canadian University women's hockey national titles and was one of the first competitive women's hockey teams in the country. They played against American university teams when there was no Canadian league for them to play in.
When Julie Chu took over the head coaching job last week, she became only the second head coach Concordia has had in 35 years.
