Season Under new head coach, "Razor" Watkins, the Bates hockey team convened in early December and put together an ambitious schedule that had them playing as many as 16 games.https://archive.org/details/Bates_Student_1921/page/n121/mode/2up Hockey Schedule Announced Bates Student December 9, 1921 June 9, 2023 Probably the biggest change for the club was the final decision to transition away from the rover position, as most colleges had already dispensed with the extra player in recent years. Bates had played 7-man hockey for all but one game over the previous two years but, as most of their opponents had bent to the 6-man trend, Bates had to follow suit. The team spent a month getting into shape and welcomed their old foe Bowdoin after returning from the winter break. The first half was played with a rover and the second without. However, the biggest factor in the match was the poor condition of the ice. The pace was slow and stopped either team from getting much in the way of offensive chances. After a scoreless first, Roberts netted the games only goal midway through the second and led Bates to their first win of the season.https://archive.org/details/Bates_Student_1921/page/n121/mode/2up Bates Opens Hockey Season With 1-0 Win Over Bowdoin Bates Student January 13, 1922 June 9, 2023 The second game a week later saw Bates dominate the local St. Dominique team. A hat-trick from Cogan in the second period allowed coach Watkins to use alternates in all 6 positions for the third period and cruise to a 4–0 win.https://archive.org/details/Bates_Student_1922/page/n5/mode/2up Bates Trounces St. Dominique Bates Student January 20, 1922 June 9, 2023 A day later, the team was in Berlin to take on a very strong amateur squad. The team was outmatched by their opponents and were outshot 10 to 40 in the game but gave the crowd of 700 a decent showing nonetheless. After a few cancellations and postponements, Army was up next for the club as the team went on its longest road trip to date. Batten was nearly as busy as he had been against Berlin and stopped 32 shots but, due a lack of offense, the team lost the match 1–4 with Cogan scoring their only goal.https://archive.org/details/Bates_Student_1922/page/n11/mode/2up Bates Defeated 4 to 1 in Clean, Fast Hockey Game Bates Student January 27, 1922 June 9, 2023 That trend continued as the team made a layover in Amherst, losing a pair of games with only one goal to show for their efforts. The garnet looked better in the final match against Yale, holing a lead going into the third period, but ultimately fell 3–5.https://archive.org/details/Bates_Student_1922/page/n15/mode/2up Bates Loses to Yale in Final Game of Trip Bates Student February 3, 1922 June 9, 2023 Despite playing well in many of their games, the team's record was in a horrible state by the beginning of February due to poor offensive output. The team had some time off before their next match and made the most of it. By the time they hosted the Portland Country Club, the offense was in fine form. While the team was without captain Rounds, McKenna and Dagnino played a strong game on defense with Partridge taking over in the goal. Though the game was only 30 minutes in length, Bates pumped 4 goals into the opposing cage, producing their best offensive performance to date.https://archive.org/details/Bates_Student_1922/page/n21/mode/2up Portland C. C. Falls Before Bates Attack Bates Student February 17, 1922 June 9, 2023 A few days later the team took the hammer to a local aggregation and allowed just 3 shots on goal to the Lewiston Independents. The game was so lopsided that Hinds got some playing time in goal despite the game being just 20 minutes in length. The rematch with St. Dominique's was even better than the original with Roberts, Stanley and Dagnino each netting a pair of goals while Cogan, the team's leading scorer, posted 4 for himself.https://archive.org/details/Bates_Student_1922/page/n25/mode/2up Garnet Again Shows Heels to St. Dominique Bates Student February 17, 1922 June 9, 2023 The next night the team was in Augusta, vying for supremacy with Colby. Due to the small size of the rink, the game was rough and a bit ragged but the Garnet got three goals from Stanley to lead them to Victory. With the earlier win over Bowdoin, Bates claimed the state intercollegiate championship and appeared to have fully recovered from their early-season scoring woes. A week later Colby came to Lewiston for a rematch and they were easily dispatched 7–0. Cogan recorded another hat-trick in the match but the victory was a total team effort.https://archive.org/details/Bates_Student_1922/page/n29/mode/2up Garnet Closes Successful Season By 7-0 Win Over Colby Puck Chasers Bates Student March 3, 1922 June 9, 2023 The club finished out the year with one more victory over St. Dominique to post the program's first winning season. On several occasions, a rematch with Bowdoin was arranged only for winter storms to force its cancellation. Despite the best efforts of both schools, a rematch never took place.https://archive.org/details/mirror192200unse/page/158/mode/2up?q=hockey Bates Mirror 1922 Bates College June 9, 2023 W.
