Harold Garry, the former coach and captain of the Blue and Gold, returned after finishing up his doctoral studies and led the Hilltoppers in their hour of need.

During the winter break, coach Garry took part of the team up to Big Cedar Lake and won two games against amateur clubs on the same day.

The team played their only home game of the season against long-time rival Wisconsin and were then forced back onto the road when the ice began to melt.

The Hilltoppers won against a hand-picked team from Green Bay and DePere but could get no playing time before their final games at Ann Arbor.

Michigan was a strong team that season, having won four of their previous five games, and overwhelmed the hamstrung Blue and Gold.
