The Wagon Wheel Cardinals, based in Rockton, Illinois, and also known as the Rockton Cardinals, played in the Illinois Ice Hockey League from 1958-1963. They won the regular season title all five years they spent in the league, and the playoff crown in 1959. For 1963-64, they joined the North Central Hockey League, which also featured teams from Minnesota. After two seasons in the league, the Cardinals became an independent team, playing until 1971.
