The Brockport men’s ice hockey team will host its annual Willie Bee Foundation Jersey Night on Friday, January 31st against nationally-ranked No. 2 Utica University at 7 p.m.
The Golden Eagles will don special edition uniforms throughout the contest as a tribute to the Willie Bee Foundation.

The Willie Bee Foundation is a 501(c)(3) not-for-profit charitable organization founded in August of 2017 to benefit local families who have a child facing a life-threatening illness. The Willie Bee Foundation was founded in memory of Will, who lost his life after a courageous battle with AT/RT, an aggressive brain tumor just a few weeks shy of his second birthday.
The bidding on all 30 players uniforms will start at $50 with proceeds to benefit The Willie Bee Foundation. Bidding should be done in a minimum $5 increments. You can place a bid by emailing Head Coach Brian Dickinson at bdickins@brockport.edu with your name and current jersey bid.
