The Jackals have won one division championship through their first nine seasons of play, in 2001-2002. That season, the Jackals ran away with the UHL's Eastern Division, beating out the second-place B.C. Icemen by 12 points.
Justin Donati became the first Jackal to garner an ECHL yearly honor on Wednesday when he was named to the league's All-Rookie Team. Donati leads all rookies with 96 points, 38 goals, and 58 assists, and was one of the Jackals' two All-Stars this season.
