During the early part of the season the Freshmen were handicapped by lack of ice and of efficient coaching. The irregularity of their practice has given little opportunity for the development of team-play, individually, however, the players are good. If they can work together both on offence and defence in their game tomorrow, their greater experience may give them a slight advantage over their opponents...
...this season the Freshman team has shown up poorly, and within the last few weeks has had very little practice.

...Although practice has been held as often as ice has permitted, the players in general, and especially the forwards, have shown little improvement. There is a tendency towards individual work and the shooting has been very inaccurate and weak. The poor condition of the team is due to the lack of organized coaching...
