"Mustangs" is the name of the sports teams of the University of Western Ontario, located in London, Ontario. They are members of Ontario University Athletics (OUA) and U Sports (formerly known as CIS).
History[]
The Western Ontario Mustangs hockey team started playing in various Senior, Intermediate, and Junior competitions with Wikia links going back to 1914-15. They also competed in the Intermediate Intercollegiate Series most seasons from 1925-26 to 1938-39.
The team re-started in 1964-65 when they entered the QOAA where they remained until the conference ended in 1970-71. In 1971-72 they joined the Ontario Universities Athletic Association (OUAA) once the Ontario and Quebec conferences were re-organized along provincial lines.
