The 1927–28 UCLA Grizzlies men's ice hockey season was the second season of the program and the first season in which the team was known as UCLA. In the team's inaugural 1926–27 season, the school was known as California Southern Campus.
Season
Fresh off of their first official season, and an undefeated one no less, UCLA was slated to play their first game against USC. The game was delayed, however, and the team played a familiar opponent to begin their season, Occidental.https://archive.org/details/ucladailybruin06losa/page/n117/mode/2up?q=hockey Ice Sextet to Play Occidental Tomorrow at 7 The Daily Bruin March 9, 1928 March 15, 2021 The team lost its first game in two years and followed that up with a second consecutive defeat, putting them in a poor position right at the start. With so few games on their schedule, UCLA couldn't afford to lose any more and the team recovered with a hard fought win in game 3.https://archive.org/details/ucladailybruin06losa/page/n155/mode/2up?q=hockey Hockeyists Win Third Game in College League The Daily Bruin March 9, 1928 March 15, 2021 The two early losses, and USC's dominance over Occidental, meant that UCLA could only hope for a tie with the Trojans for the crown but that could only happen if the Grizzlies won each of their remaining 3 games.
In the pivotal game with Southern California, the Trojans got out to a 2-goal lead but UCLA was able to tie the game and make it look like they had a chance for a time. Unfortunately the attack from USC was to strong and the Grizzlies surrendered 6 goals, handing the city championship over to the Trojans.https://archive.org/details/ucladailybruin06losa/page/n189/mode/2up?q=hockey Hockey Team Loses to S.C. The Daily Bruin April 2, 1928 March 15, 2021 After a second loss to Occidental, the team's lineup was changed with Tafe dropping back to defense (where he had played the year before) and Al Johnson jumping up to the forward position.https://archive.org/details/ucladailybruin06losa/page/n219/mode/2up?q=hockey Hockey Sextet in Final Game Tonight at 7:00 The Daily Bruin April 11, 1928 March 15, 2021 The game was delayed when USC got the date wrong and didn't show up to the game. The Grizzlies could have claimed a win on a forfeit but the team refused to do so. It was rescheduled for a week later but eventually cancelled.https://archive.org/details/southerncampus1928univ/page/286/mode/2up?q=hockey UCLA 1928 Yearbook UCLA March 13, 2021
