# UQAC Inuk men's ice hockey

The UQAC Inuk men's ice hockey team was a varsity ice hockey team that represented the Université du Québec à Chicoutimi. The team is currently a member of RSEQ Division II as a club team.

## History

UQAC began its ice hockey program in 1976, joining what was then called the Quebec Universities Athletic Association (QUAA). The Inuk spent most of its time yo-yoing up and down the standings. A runner-up finish in their third season resulted in the team receiving an at-large bid to the University Cup tournament where they performed well. Chicoutimi consistency problem led the team to be largely uncompetitive until the mid-80s when they won their first regular season championship. The very next season, the program finished last in the standings and the school decided to pull the plug.
The departure of UQAC precipitated the collapse of the QUAA's ice hockey division with the remaining clubs being absorbed into the Ontario University Athletic Association (OUAA) in 1987. 35 years later, UQAC returned to the ice as a member of RSEQ's reconstituted ice hockey division. As of 2024, the conference remains a probationary member of U Sports and is not eligible for tournament play.
