Season

edit

Having started their ice hockey program during World War I, when many programs had suspended, Boston College had few options for opponents and had to settle for uncommon opposition. Their third and final game of the year was against future-arch rival Boston University.

Note: Boston College's athletic programs weren't known as the 'Eagles' until 1920.
