Western Michigan hockey, fresh off their first national championship win since 1965, is commemorating the achievement with two official bobbleheads released by the National Bobblehead Hall of Fame and Museum in Milwaukee. The limited edition bobbleheads, featuring the school mascot Buster Bronco and the championship logo, are available for purchase online with only 2,025 units up for grabs.
The Broncos secured their historic victory by defeating Denver in a double-overtime thriller before dominating Boston University 6-2 in the championship game. The team's success was propelled by key Michigan natives such as captain Tim Washe and top goal-scorer Owen Michaels, marking a milestone in the program's history. The bobbleheads, priced at $40 for Buster Bronco and $30 for the championship logo, serve as a tangible reminder of Western Michigan's triumph in the NCAA men's hockey tournament.
