The Jamestown Titans were a semi-professional ice hockey team in North Eastern Hockey League (NEHL) based in Jamestown, New York.
A postmortem on the team and the league written by The Post-Journal noted that the team was not particularly well remembered in Jamestown hockey history. The team's existence was marred by poor organizational changes, scheduling games at odd times and ever-changing ticket prices. The team's name was said to have come from "a computer football game."[1]
The Titans were led in scoring by league All Star Rob Madia and winger Dave Kamatovic finished the 2003-04 regular season in second place behind the Mohawk Valley Comets. The team also featured Oshawa and Peterborough Ontario Junior A Hockey grads Mike Thompson, Wes Neild and Brad Chapman In the playoffs, Jamestown played the York IceCats a 2 game series for the league Championship (as Mohawk Valley declined to participate in the playoffs). If there were a tie after the 2 games they would play a 20-minute mini game. York won the opening game, 8-5. Jamestown defeated York 9-1 in the second game and then won a 20-minute tiebreaker game 6-1. As league champions, Rob Madia accepted the Herb Brooks Memorial Trophy on behalf of the Titans.
