==Season==
As they had over the previous two seasons, Cornell participated in the Lake Placid Invitational early in the year. The Big Red began with a game against Colgate, the defending champion, and ended up losing their chance at the title straight away. Cornell surrendered the first three goals of the game and the heroics in the later half couldn't overcome the early deficit. The Big Red recovered for two consolation wins to finish the championship.
After returning from the winter break, Cornell was able to get in one practice before the rematch with Colgate. The team was contending with a great deal of turnover due to graduation and injuries and the Raiders took full advantage. Team captain Harry Bill knocked the puck into the Cornell goal but the mistake didn't affect the game as the score was already 0–3 and the Raiders shut down the Big Red offense. Entering the next game, Cornell was able to get a weeks-worth of practice under their belt and hoped to get back on the winning side of the ledger. Army, however, was not accommodating and the strong Cadets squad scored six consecutive goals in the second to take the game 8–4.
Due to warm weather, all of Cornell home dates were eventually scrapped and the team didn't hit the ice until late February when they travelled to face Hamilton. The final match of the season took place at the Memorial Auditorium in Buffalo against Williams. The game was played before 3,000 spectators and the audience was able to witness the Ephs hand Cornell their fourth consecutive loss of the season.
