Notes

  1. ^ The school did not adopt the Wildcats nickname until February 1926;[2] before then, they were generally referred to as "the blue and white".
  2. ^ This was Cowell's 10th year and 9th season as head coach, as the school did not field a varsity team in 1918 due to World War I.
  3. ^ Memorial Field remains in use by the New Hampshire women's field hockey team.[3]
  4. ^ Lowell Textile is now University of Massachusetts Lowell.
