The 1911 New Hampshire football team[a] was an American football team that represented New Hampshire College of Agriculture and the Mechanic Arts[b] during the 1911 college football season—the school became the University of New Hampshire in 1923. The team finished with a record of 1–5–1.

The team began the season with new head coach George McCaa,[3] but he resigned on October 9, after three games had been played, to become supervisor of athletics and assistant football coach at Lafayette College in Pennsylvania.[4] Coaching of the team for the next two games is unclear—some contemporary sources named Joseph Courtney,[5] apparently hired and quickly dismissed,[6][c] but Courtney is believed to have been coach of the 1911 Boston College football team for the entire season. New Hampshire's athletic association hired Ray B. Thomas, who had coached the 1910 New Hampshire football team, to coach the final two games of the season.[6][d]

Schedule

[edit]

Scoring during this era awarded five points for a touchdown, one point for a conversion kick (extra point), and three points for a field goal. Teams played in the one-platoon system.

Notes

[edit]
  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. ^ The school was often referred to as New Hampshire College or New Hampshire State College in newspapers of the era.
  3. ^ The New Hampshire stated that Courtney was fired due to "dissatisfaction" with his work and for missing a practice game against crew members of the USS North Carolina.[6]
  4. ^ Thomas is the only coach listed for the 1911 season in New Hampshire's media guide,[7] and in the recap of the 1911 season appearing in the school's 1913 yearbook.[8]
