December 31, 2020 - United States Hockey League (USHL)
Waterloo Black Hawks News Release
Waterloo, Iowa - The United States Hockey League announced Thursday that the Waterloo Black Hawks will meet the Dubuque Fighting Saints and Lincoln Stars at Young Arena in January and April respectively.
The games had originally been planned for Thanksgiving week but were declared No Contests at that time, as conditions did not meet the minimum standards outlined in league safety protocols. Waterloo's new matchup with the Fighting Saints will be on Tuesday, January 26th at 7:05 p.m. The game against Lincoln will also begin at 7:05 p.m. on Tuesday, April 20th.
In total, eight of Waterloo's November games were altered. However, all of those contests have now been rescheduled on new nights. A complete accounting of the updates is below:

Season ticket holders will automatically have their tickets package updated to account for the new home dates. Due to the Black Hawks' 2020/21 electronic ticketing policy and the implementation of limited ticket sales windows ahead of home games, only a small quantity of single-game tickets were sold for November home games. The team has already worked with all fans in those circumstances. Anyone with ticket questions is encouraged to call the Domino's Black Hawks Box Office at (319) 291-7680. Young Arena's capacity remains reduced to promote social distancing under the team's COVID-19 Readiness Plan.
