The growing popularity of the Vernal Oilers hockey team is well deserved. The team clinched their spot at Nationals after winning the 2024 Northwest Division Championship. The Oilers defeated the Seattle Totems at home in the Western Park Ice Rink over the weekend with a final score of 6 to 2. This makes them back-2-back champs in their division. The team shared their good news and appreciation for the local support on social media. “This community has welcomed 30 strangers hailing from all over the world into their hearts and homes and made them feel like family while they pursue their hockey dreams,” they shared. “Vernal is a special place, and we are so proud to play for you all. We’re not done though, next stop Utica, New York!” Well done to the entire team and good luck at Nationals!
