2013 Colorado Ice season

Indoor Football League team season January 2025 Colorado Ice 2013 8–4 Intense Conference Heron O'Neal Collins Sanders Tom Wigley Budweiser Events Center 2012 2014 The 2013 Colorado Ice season was the team's seventh season as a football franchise and fifth in the Indoor Football League (IFL). Founded in 2007 as part of United Indoor Football, the Colorado Ice became charter members of the IFL when the UIF merged with the Intense Football League before the 2009 season. One of just nine teams that competed in the IFL for the 2013 season, the Fort Collins-based Colorado Ice were members of the Intense Conference. In their second season under head coach Heron O'Neal, the team played their home games at the Budweiser Events Center in Loveland, Colorado. Off-field moves Shortly before the 2013 season began, the owner of the Cheyenne Warriors died which forced that team to suspend operations and the IFL to revise its schedule to accommodate the now 9-team league. In late May 2013, the team extended the contract of head coach Heron O'Neal through the 2017 season.
