Pekin Stars

The Pekin Stars were an American semi-professional ice hockey team located in Pekin, Illinois. The team played in the Continental Hockey League and was active for two seasons in the 1970s.
==History==
Pekin was founded in 1964 and joined the Continental Hockey League in 1977. Their debut was a rough one, as the team lost all 34 games they played that season, though some were by forfeit as the club suspended play in early February. A change in ownership brought about a remarkable turnaround for the following season and Pekin won the league championship. Unfortunately, their success was short-lived and when further financing could not be arranged the team ceased operations after their title.
