Central Texas Stampede
The Central Texas Stampede were a minor professional hockey team out of Belton that played four full seasons and part of a fifth between 1996 and 2001. Consistently strong on the ice, the Stampede never had a losing season or failed to make the Western Professional Hockey League during their four full seasons of competition. But the team was undone by ownership instability and disbanded in midway through its fifth season of play in January 2001.
