Over the previous few years Harvard had played 'ice polo' with Frederick Goodridge captaining the team.[1] For the 1897-98 season the players switched to ice hockey and the team played its first game January 19, losing 0–6 against Brown.
Note: Harvard University did not formally adopt Crimson as its moniker until 1910 but the student body had uniformly been associated with the color since 1875.[2]
