Dads_Day_Field_Hockey_Game_1950.jpg

On the morning of Dad's Day (the precursor to Parent's Weekend), the girls' hockey team defeated the visiting team from Mt. Union 2-1. The women were involved here in an intercollegiate competition! In this photo, we see the women in action on the hockey field. A goal and goalkeeper in cricket pads can be seen on the far right. The women were dressed in long pants, long skirts, sweatshirts, and some wear pinnies. They were all using long-toed English sticks.The administrative head at the time was Kathleen Lowrie.
