The Anderson Cup is awarded annually to the United States Hockey League's regular season champion. It is named after Harold Anderson, who was extremely influential in the formation of the Midwest Junior Hockey League, the predecessor of the USHL. It is one of two trophies a team can win, the other being the Clark Cup, which is awarded to the USHL Tier 1 playoff champion. The Anderson Cup is nearly five-feet tall and cost over $5,000 to build in 1973.
