The 1947–48 Union Skating Dutchmen men's ice hockey season was the 30th season of play for the program but 1st under NCAA oversight. The Skating Dutchmen represented Union College and were coached by Art Lawrence in his 4th season.
Season
Union took longer than most teams to return to the ice after World War II and reappeared just in time for the introduction of the NCAA tournament. The green team wasn't expected to win many of their games as they had to contend with a lack of consistent ice as the local rink was a temporary facility that was entirely at the mercy of local weather conditions.[1] However, even with the inexperience and poor ice the team could hardly produce a worse season. Union was shutout in 6 of their games and lost by double digits on as many occasions.
There were some bright spots, particularly in the defensive play of Phil Brady, but that wasn't enough to help the team compete in many games. The situation with the rink got so bat at one point that the third period of the match with Champlain had to be divided into two 10-minute sessions so that both team had the ability to push the puck down a hill. While A.D. J. H. Wittner assured the team that the field upon which the rink was erected had been levelled off the previous spring, there was a definite tilt to the surface.[2] The Dutchmen did show improve as the year went on and their final game was perhaps their best on the year. Despite losing to Champlain once more, the defense was stout all night long while the offense consistently attacked the opposing cage.[3]
