After a difficult season in 1924, the school decided to bring in the first full-time coach for the program and baseball manager, "Smiling" Ben Houser, agreed to take over.
While the team was largely unaltered, the changes in style made by Ben Houser turned a solid squad into a defensive force that was able to stand up to perennial state champion Bates.
Cutter finally was able to get Bowdoin on the board in the third but a pair of subsequent goals from BU turned the game into a whitewash and the Bears returned home with several issues to address.
Bowdoin played possibly the best game in program history, looking like a well-oiled machine against Colby and completely dominated their in-state rivals 7–0.
Coach Houser put the reserve forwards in for the latter half of the match and, though they failed to score, the Bears' defense made it impossible for the Mules to mount a comeback.
Though Bowdoin had played just 4 matched, they were able to win their first state championship by defeating the other two active programs (Maine had suspended operations after last season).
