They are also the only program to have played in four straight Vanier Cups.

Men's ice hockey
Laval's first team was fielded immediately after World War II, playing a handful of games in the Senior Intercollegiate League. The circuit included four teams that were outside the Canadian Intercollegiate Athletic Union, the main conference for Canadian college hockey. Unfortunately, the league did not prove to be successful and was abandoned after just one year. Five years later, Laval returned to the ice as a member of the CIAU, joining its former sister school, Montreal.The program proved to be too costly for the university to continue to operate and the team was shuttered after a 2nd-place finish in 1983.
